While the Department does not have a policy in place to install such artificial structures, my Department is committed to implementing green public procurement (GPP) policies in all appropriate tenders including landscaping tenders.

The information in respect of state bodies, within the scope of the Deputy’s question, is not held by my Department. Contact details for these bodies are set out in the attached document should the Deputy wish to contact them directly with this query.
