Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 29 June 2023
287. Deputy Sean Sherlock asked the Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media the amount paid out to all consultancy firms for any services rendered; and the cost per contract for the year-to-date 2023, in tabular form [31697/23]
View answerI am advised that no expenditure was incurred on consultancy firms from my Department's Administrative Budget for the year-to-date 2023.
From time to time, my Department commissions experts to provide technical reports or advice on specific issues. While the providers of these services may describe themselves as consultants, their work is not classified as consultancy services and is not funded from my Department's Administrative Budget.
