Mr. Ciarán Breen:
We put a panel together for a period of at least four years, with I think an option of a further year before we procure again. All firms throughout Ireland are entitled to apply and we go through a stated process of picking those firms based on criteria that would attach to the procurement, for example, some of the things I have spoken to the Deputy about like particular expertise, what fees may be charged and other criteria.
