Amharc ar fhreagraThe Health Service Executive (HSE) operates the Civil Registration service on behalf of the Department of Social Protection and it has responsibility for oversight of this service. Due to the recent cyberattack on the HSE, many of their services and systems were affected. I have been advised that most civil registration services have now resumed including the telephone service for the civil registration service in Dublin which has resumed operation since Monday 26 July 2021.
