Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 18 November 2014
527. Deputy Eoghan Murphy asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if he will provide a detailed breakdown of the €17.2 million fee charged to Irish Water by a company (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [44308/14]
View answerI understand that the work undertaken by Accenture was in respect of Integrated Programme Management of Business Capability Establishment projects and management of specialist vendors contracted by Bord Gáis Eireann. The procurement by Irish Water of external resources is a matter for the company and I had no role in approving individual contracts.
Irish Water has established a dedicated team to deal with representations and queries from public representatives and has contacted all Oireachtas members to provide details of an improved level of service which it is aiming to provide. The team can be contacted via email to oireachtasmembers@water.ie or by telephone on a new dedicated number, 1890 578 578.
