Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 4 March 2010
48 Deputy Frank Feighan asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment the way in which a company (details supplied), which tendered for State jobs, was successful up to December 2009 when this company went into receivership; the checks carried out before awarding contracts.

View answerAs the Deputy has provided no details to enable the company and the public contracting authority involved to be identified, it is not possible to ascertain the area of responsibility into which this matter falls. It may be helpful to note that issues relating to public procurement are matters in the first instance for the public contracting authority involved and that policy issues and guidelines for procurement are generally matters for the Department of Finance.
