I'd imagine if something is stolen that should be reported to the gardaí and the data loss, if it contains any information which would be subject to General Data Protection Regulation the Data Protection Commissioner should be notified without undue delay (i.e. within 72 hours). https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.dataprotection.ie/sites/default/files/uploads/2019-08/190812%2520GDPR%2520Breach%2520Notification%2520Quick%2520Guide.pdf&sa=U&ved=2ahUKEwiZhfzh58bnAhWCoXEKHT4LAu8QFjAKegQIBhAB&usg=AOvVaw2SooSha3u980wzDXK_O0bX
