Northern Ireland’s Chief Constable Simon Byrne has sought to reassure staff and officer representative groups after a major data breach earlier this week.

The Police Service of Northern Ireland’s leadership was earlier pressed for a full response after details of more than 10,000 officers and staff were published online for a number of hours on Tuesday.
