The information requested by the Deputy is set out in the following table. The engagement of any such service providers by my Department is done in line with procurement policy, with every effort made to minimise costs. My Department does not have a formal policy in relation to engaging photography services, as the majority of such requirements are met internally by the staff of its Press Office.
