Information I have received from the Department of public expenditure recently claimed that, on 6 October, a briefing to be provided to the Minister, Deputy Donohoe, stated that the estimated compliance rate with central procurement solutions is at best 50% to 60% with respect to the health Vote. That is a shocking statement from a senior official to the Minister for public expenditure. Does the Office of Government Procurement have any comment, any knowledge, any interaction or any statement? Can Ms Stewart shed any light on this claim by officials to the Minister?
