While I am always anxious to respond to Deputies, I regret the information requested by the Deputy for the time period involved is not readily available and cannot be assembled without undue commitment of staff resources and administrative costs.

I hope, in the circumstances, that the Deputy will appreciate that I cannot provide the information sought. However, should the Deputy have a query in relation to a specific contract, I will have my officials provide any information requested.

My Department has not engaged in contracts with the company mentioned in the Deputy's question.

I have been informed by the Office of Public Works that in the time available they are not in position to collate all the information to supply a full response to the Deputy. They expect to have the process completed and a response forwarded to the Deputy by 16 July 2009.
