Dáil Éireann Debate, Friday - 6 September 2019
1615. Deputy Jack Chambers asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if his Department has a disaster recovery plan, business continuity plan and-or disaster recovery sites; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [36251/19]
View answerMy Department has an ICT disaster recovery plan and appropriate disaster recovery sites to ensure that, in the event of any incident that impacts our ICT systems, ICT services required to operate my Department continue with minimal disruption.
A Department-wide business continuity plan is currently in development. The objective of the plan will be to enable my Department to effectively respond to an emergency or disruptive incident, ensuring that key functions, both ICT and otherwise, can be maintained at an acceptable level, or are restored to such a level as quickly as possible.
