The information requested by the Deputy is set out in the tables below, with one table for my Department and another for the Office of Government Procurement (OGP), which is also part of my Department.
Department of Public Expenditure and Reform
Year | Costs |
---|---|
2021 (to date) | €122,488 |
2020 | €176,370 |
2019 | €160,827 |
2018 | €149,769 |
2017 | €152,031 |
Office of Government Procurement (OGP)
Year | Costs |
---|---|
2021 (to date) | €13,248 |
2020 | €29,448 |
2019 | €55,483 |
2018 | €44,675 |
2017 | €51,447 |
With the exception of 2021, the costs shown incorporate the full electricity costs incurred by my Department during the period specified, as it is not possible to accurately identify what percentage of these costs are applicable to lighting costs only.
It should be noted that the 2021 figures for the OGP offices currently reflect the costs paid to date. Due to the shared tenancy arrangements at the OGP's office locations between the OGP and other public bodies, the final distribution of costs has yet to be finalised by the Office of Public Works.
