My Department has not established a Commission of Investigation under the Commission of Investigations Act 2004. As set out in my reply to Parliamentary Question 253 of 18 January 2017, professional assistance has been engaged in relation to personnel investigations pertaining to the Defence Forces.
My Department paid a total of €23,954 for services in respect of one such matter while services in respect of a second investigation have not yet been the subject of an invoice or payment.
