Ireland’s new government CIO wants to end the form-filling groundhog day's
Ireland's Government CIO Louise McKeever returns for part 2 to talk about what it actually takes to join up government services around citizens.
Louise takes us inside:
🔹 Digital building blocks — the reusable infrastructure (gov.ie, e-forms, payments, messaging, a digital wallet) that means departments don't have to rebuild the same systems
🔹 Leading without authority — how you coordinate a whole government's worth of independently governed departmental CIOs toward one shared goal
🔹 Data as a national asset — and why citizen trust has to come before the benefits
🔹 Digital sovereignty — what "resilience and control" really means for Ireland during its EU presidency
🔹 Life events — how registering a birth, a bereavement, further education and social housing are being redesigned as one simple experience, hiding the departmental complexity behind them
