Ceist:93 Mr. Quinn asked the Minister for Defence the number of outside consultants engaged by his Department since he took office; the cost of each individual contract; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [18090/98]
Written Answers - Departmental Costs.
Twelve consultants were engaged by the Department since I took office. As the details of the costs of the individual consultants are in the form of a tabular statement, I propose to circulate it in the Official Report.
