Taxi services for official duties for staff of the Department of Justice and Equality are provided by a company on foot of an open, EU wide, public tender competition. This competition for Taxi Services was advertised in the Official Journal of The European Union in October 2010 and the contract awarded in May 2011 for a period of three years. The tender process was conducted in accordance with EU and Irish procurement law. It is anticipated that the replacement contract will be put to tender by the Office of Government Procurement.
