Public Accounts Committee

Teagasc Financial Statements 2017

9:00 am

Ms Susan Kearney:

I have some detail on that.

The €345,000 includes €19,000 for consultancy on Moodle, which is an educational tool in college, some work done by an external agency on means-testing student grants, an evaluation of our library service, and payments made to UCD and UCC for expertise of which we availed. There was also spend on consultants associated with the project in Johnstown Castle to develop a tourism centre. The castle was formerly used for research but it is not appropriate for that use. Some of the spend was also on organising international conferences and other things. The amount includes a range of issues.
