In the period in question my Department has not sent material abroad for printing. I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that their policy on handling printing work is as follows. Where feasible, printing is carried on in-house by the Revenue Printing Centre. If the Revenue Printing Centre cannot carry out a particular job an order will be placed through the Government Supplies Agency arrangements.
With regard to information requested by the Deputy, this is detailed in the following table. I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that the contracts were all awarded following competitive processes run on their behalf by the Government Supplies Agency of the Office of Public Works.
Years | Material Printed | Amount Spent |

2004-2007 | Various Tax and VAT Forms | 71,100.00 |
2004-2007 | Cheque stationery | 66,083.53 |
2007 | Security Overlay for C2 Cards | 39,639.07 |

2007-2008 | File Covers | 33,011.09 |

I have been informed by the Office of Public Works that they are currently examining records in relation to their own printing work and will forward directly to the Deputy any relevant information accruing from this process.
