My Department has made available on its website details regarding consultancies (excepting those of minor value, i.e., less than €5,000 excluding VAT) relating to the period since its establishment in June 2002 up to the end of September 2007. The relevant link, which will take the Deputy directly to these details, including the information sought by him, in relation to expenditure by my Department is: www.pobail.ie/en/CorporateSupportServices/ Finance/Consultancies. For the Deputy's convenience, I have arranged for a copy of the material in question to be sent directly to him at his Oireachtas e-mail address. The Deputy will appreciate that the appointment of consultants by bodies/agencies that report to my Department is a day-to-day operational matter for the chief executive officers of those organisations. Accordingly, I have asked the chief executive officers to provide the relevant information directly to the Deputy.
