Written answers

It has not been possible to collate the information requested by the Deputy within the time allowed. I will write to the Deputy to provide this information as soon as it is available.

The following deferred reply was received under Standing Order 51
I refer to Parliamentary Question No. 831 to my Department, which was for answer on 28 April 2021, and in which you requested the cost of each contract entered into by my Department and the agencies under my remit to deal with COVID-19 management and reaction, and the name of the contractor in each case.
As you will recall, the information you requested could not be obtained in the time available and I undertook to contact you again. Please find a response to this question provided below for your consideration and my sincere apologies for how long it has taken to gather this material.
Department of Justice
The Department of Justice is making COVID-19 specific funding available to assist organisations working to support victims of crime, including victims of domestic, sexual and gender based abuse, in response to the increased demand for services during the pandemic. It has secured an additional €400,000 to continue this COVID-19 specific support in 2021.
This COVID-19 specific funding which is being maintained and increased in budget 2021 has provided additional resources, support, enforcement and services to key organisations in the area of domestic, sexual and gender based violence.
Other COVID-19 related costs incurred by my Department are outlined in the table below.

An Garda Síochána
An Garda Síochána provides all 28 Garda Divisions and Specialist Units with PPE equipment on a weekly basis, which is issued from the Central Stores facility in Santry, Dublin. In turn, each Division then distributes the PPE supplies to all Garda Stations within their aegis to ensure Garda Members and staff have adequate supplies to meet operational requirements. A Divisional Inspector is responsible for the distribution of PPE in each Division and stocks are replenished on request, as shortages arise.
Due to worldwide shortages of PPE throughout 2020, a number of companies were used to supply the items required. An Garda Síochána has not had a requirement to purchase additional PPE in 2021.
