The amount my Department has spent on hiring or use of outside consultants in 2007, 2008 and 2009 is contained in the following table.
2007 | 2008 | 2009 |
â'¬4.4 million | â'¬3.52 million | â'¬3.62 million |
Outside consultancies are hired in circumstances where particular expertise is required and where it is deemed to add value to the overall work of the Department.
