Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 24 July 2018
2867. Deputy Richard Boyd Barrett asked the Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht the amount 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 she will make a statement on the matter. [35380/18]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe information requested by the Deputy on expenditure of consultancy services for the period 2012 to 2017 is set out in the tables below.
I would also point out that my Department also commissions engineering or environmental experts from time to time to provide technical reports on specific issues, as required. While the providers of these services are consultant engineers, environmental consultants or may describe themselves in other such terms, their work is not classified as consultancy services and is not funded from my Department's Administrative Budget.
