Vote 43 - Office of the Chief Government Information Officer (Revised) (2 Mar 2021) Peadar Tóibín: Who has a cross-departmental oversight role on the efficacy of procurement by Departments? To be honest, I would have thought that the location and the continuing cost of a procurement contract to a Government organisation, such as the HSE, should be of significant concern both to the Minister of State and the Office of Government Procurement.

Vote 43 - Office of the Chief Government Information Officer (Revised) (2 Mar 2021) Peadar Tóibín: Yes, if I may. Go raibh míle maith agat, a Chathaoirleach. I have found this extremely frustrating.

Vote 43 - Office of the Chief Government Information Officer (Revised) (2 Mar 2021) Peadar Tóibín: With the permission of the Chairman, I would like to ask a question on the budget deficit, which, for 2020, is expected to be 5.5% of GDP and approximately 10% of GNI.

Has the Government developed any plan to reduce the budget deficit and the timescales that might...

Peadar Tóibín: Ireland has the longest lasting and most severe workplace restrictions in Europe. We have lost 163 days of work due to closure. This compares to 34 days in Germany. Does the Minister not agree that it is an outstanding fact that this country has had to lock down for longer with restrictions more severe than other European countries due to the way this illness has been managed? Indeed, for...
