Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 19 January 2022
546. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage if he will provide a schedule of all client and or customer facing and or orientated services that his Department provide via a contracted service provider; the contractor that provides the service; and the cost of same for the past five years to date in 2022. [1803/22]
Amharc ar fhreagraIn the main, the services provided by my Department are provided directly or in partnership with local authorities and State agencies. My Department does not contract service providers for the sole purpose of delivering services on its' behalf.
There may, however, be contractors (to my Department) that have some element of customer-facing activities but these are not the main purpose of the contract and quantification of such elements would involve a disproportionate amount of time and work.
