Dr. Ambrose McLoughlin:

I can clarify that. In the years 2006 to 2008, a total of €11,900 was paid to a former Department official from the levy fund account. The official retired from the Department in March 2006, having worked on partnership-related issues until 2002. He had no involvement in the funding arrangements for the SKILL programme which was established in 2004. The consultancy services provided and the payments for same are a matter for the fund administrator and the individual concerned.
