How much, if any, did the Minister’s departments, agencies, crown entities and any other bodies that the Minister is responsible for, if any, spend fixing database security breaches in the 2022 calendar year?

Answer

As Minister of Energy, I have no responsibility for any government departments or Ministries. In respect of the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment, I refer the Member to the Minister for Economic Growth's answer to written parliamentary question 4870 (2025). With regard to Crown entities under the energy portfolio. The Electricity Authority did not incur any expenditure for fixing database security breaches in the 2022 calendar year. EECA did not spent any money fixing databases as a result of a security breach over the 2022 calendar year.
