Details of expenditure for services for the specified companies are as per the table below. These amounts were taken from the Department's Financial Management System. From the brief description available on that system it would appear that the amounts are primarily in relation to non-audit services. However, a further detailed examination of each individual payment can be undertaken by my Department, to confirm, should the Deputy so request.

I have also requested the Health Service Executive to respond directly to the Deputy in this matter.
