The information requested by the Deputy in relation to consultants engaged by my Department is being compiled and will be forwarded as soon as possible.

In relation to agencies under the aegis of my Department, the position is that the information in question is not readily available in my Department and would involve an inordinate amount of administrative time to compile. I attach a list of bodies under the aegis of my Department. If you have a query in relation to a particular body then officials of my Department would be more than happy to discuss this with you.
