My Department's remit includes complex policy areas, including regulation of sectors such as mining and hydrocarbon exploration. The Department necessarily incurs some occasional expenditure on archaeological services from time to time.
In procuring these services, my Department always seeks to ensure value for money and keeping expenditure to the minimum necessary.
The policy of selection and contracting of archaeological services for my Department is carried out as part of competitive procurement processes in line with Office of Government Procurement guidelines. Where possible, every effort is made to minimise costs.
The information requested is outlined in tabular format:
