The Tellus Programme is undertaken by Geological Survey Ireland and is funded by my Department. All of the data from Tellus is made available free of charge online. The programme has an annual cost of €3.5m and expenditure by the state to end 2019 is €14.4m. A number of service providers support my Department in the delivery of the Tellus programme. Procurement of these services is carried out  under normal Government procurement rules.
