Vote 8 - Office of the Comptroller and Auditor General

Ms Colette Drinan:

In 2018, the cost was €128,000 for the contract, and the hours equated to one full-time equivalent, FTE. It is significantly higher than the salary scales for our staff, but pensions have to be factored in for our staff. Certain elements have to be factored in that are not captured in that cost.
