I came into office in May 2016 and there was no spend by my Department on the matters referred to in that year. The spend to date in 2017 is set out in the following table:
Company: | Amount: |
---|---|
Ms. Mandy Johnson | €4,750 |
Persuasion Republic | €102,256 |
Total | €107,006 |
In general such services are engaged only as needs arise and where it is felt professional expertise can be of assistance to my Department.
