Written answers

The Department did not engage either firm (PwC, KPMG) for consultancy or any other type of accounting or audit work in the past two and a half years.

The Department did second a number of PwC staff. The staff concerned worked in the Financial Services Division where they provided specialist advice. The assignment did not involve the commissioning of any reports. From 1 October 2011 to date, the total costs of the  secondment arrangement was €340,550.
