In addition to the above costs the total cost of hosting all five sites for 2010 was €99.28.
Following the dissolution in April 2010 of two constituent bodies of the NESDO, the National Economic and Social Forum (NESF) and National Centre for Partnership and Performance (NCPP), NESDO is reducing its websites to one. This work is currently under way. This website will include both NESDO and NESC, and will also incorporate pages from the websites of the former bodies, the NESF and NCPP, as well as the Futures Ireland Website.
