Costs of €3,082.37 are associated with an event, held in Tangent Trinity Campus, Dublin on 6th March 2020 where the company referred to by the Deputy is the contracted catering provider in that location.  These costs related to the teas, coffees, water and a light lunch provided by the catering company to some 160 people who attended this event.

The event formed part of a wider nationwide programme of Jobs Week 2020 events held throughout the first week of March and focused in  particular on supports for people who have been out of the workforce for a period on a career break or for caring duties. 

I hope this clarifies the matter for the deputy.
