There are 2 limited companies with agreements for the provision of the dedicated full time services of a single individual to my Department. The services of (i) an Analyst Programmer Contractor, and (ii) a Senior Technical Service Administrator Contractor are provided under these agreements. With regard to Offices under the aegis of my Department, I have been advised that the Valuation Office uses the services of a company for the provision of a Software Programmer in the development of an IT system, and PAS currently have an agreement with a company for the supply of an individual to provide Information Technology HelpDesk Services.

Five Limited Companies currently provide the Office of Public Works with the services of nine individuals. The services are 2 for Civil Engineering Services, 2 for CAD operations, 1 for architectural services, 1 for Clerk of Works services, 1 for Draughtsperson services, 1 for IT support services, and 1 for Geographic Information services. In relation to other Offices under the aegis of my Department, I am advised that no such agreements are in place.
