Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 January 2014
455. Deputy Eoghan Murphy asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht the level of pro bono work provided by legal, accountancy and consulting firms in the past 24 months to his Department; which of those firms have also been awarded State contracts by his Department; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [4601/14]
View answerI am advised that no pro bono work was provided to my Department by legal, accountancy and consulting firms in the past twenty four months. With regard to bodies funded from my Department's Vote Group, the Deputy will appreciate that the matters raised are part of the day-to-day operational responsibilities of the bodies in question. I am arranging, therefore, for the terms of the Deputy’s Question to be transmitted to the heads of relevant bodies with a request that they provide information, to the extent feasible, directly to the Deputy.
