Catherine Murphy

Question:

261. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources if he will provide a list, in tabular form, of all contracts and tenders awarded by his Department to a company (details supplied) since 1 January, 2004, including any such awarded singularly or as a joint bid or consortium including said company; if he will indicate which Department, Agency or semi-State company was the contacting party in each case; the value in each case; the purpose of each contract; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13108/15]

Written answers

Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources

My Department has not awarded any contracts to the company referred to in the Deputy's question since the establishment of the Department in 2007.

It is not possible from the information supplied to fully confirm whether a contract was awarded to a joint bid or consortium including the said company. Only the lead contractor in such a case would appear on the Department's financial records and I can confirm that the company referred to in the Question does not appear as a lead contractor.

I have asked the Agencies under the aegis of my Department to supply the requested information, where relevant, in respect of those Agencies, directly to the Deputy.
