Aggregate expenditure in this area by my Department in 2012 was less than €14, 000. There were two projects in my Department on consultancy services in culture and film in the 2012 calendar year and in 2013, to date, that incurred expenditure. In 2012, €3,000 was expended on the international promotional works of the culture Ireland division in respect of a web development consultancy carried out by SureSkills Limited. That was the final payment for a consultancy that had commenced in 2011. A total of €10,959.30 was expended in 2012 on the independent external review of Dublin Contemporary 2011. The review is being carried out by Bonnar Keenlyside and should be completed later this year.
