Deputy Luke 'Ming' Flanagan asked the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources if he will provide copies of all the tender notices that were published on the www.etenders.gov.ie website or in the OJEU by Bord Gáis relating to the employment of consultants to perform services for them or any legal entity associated with them; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [3905/14]
View answerThe tender notices which the Deputy is requesting are in the public domain and available on the following websites www.etenders.gov.ie and http://www.ojeu.eu/. I have no direct role or responsibility in relation to tender processes or contracts awarded by a commercial semi-State company. The Chair of Bord Gáis Éireann, in compliance with the Code of Practice for the Governance of State Bodies, confirms on an annual basis that all appropriate procedures on procurement are adherred to. I am satisfied that the company complies with national and EU guidelines on public procurement.
