Questions (79)

Mary Lou McDonald

Question:

79. Deputy Mary Lou McDonald asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade if he will provide a list of all companies or persons providing an external professional service to his Department such as ICT, legal advice, advertising, project management and including any other external professional service not listed; the amount invoiced by each company to him over the past 12 months, in tabular form. [45332/12]

View answer

Written answers

My Department engages professional services in a number of areas where the required skills are not available in-house and it is more cost-effective to source them externally. Details of payments in the period in question are included in the tables below in respect of Vote 27 (International Cooperation) and Vote 28 (Foreign Affairs and Trade).
