Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 24 July 2018
190. Deputy Richard Boyd Barrett asked the Minister for Finance the amount the Revenue Commissioners paid for consultancy services in each of the years 2012 to 2017; the details of these payments; the companies that received the payments; the amount received by each company; the hourly rates that applied to each company; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [32972/18]
View answerI am advised by Revenue that the amounts paid for consultancy services by Revenue in each of the years 2012 to 2017 are set out below. Hourly rates are not available. Consultancy support is procured where it is necessary to obtain specialist services that are not available within Revenue in order to deliver on Revenue’s wide range of business programmes.
