My Department is arranging for an information campaign on the report of the National Task Force on Medical Staffing. In line with EU procurement guidelines, the campaign is the subject of a formal tendering process, which is in progress. For competitive reasons, it would be inappropriate to specify a budget in the request for tender documents while candidate firms are preparing their proposals. I expect the contract to be awarded by my Department towards the end of this month.
