I propose to take Questions Nos. 288 and 289 together. 

The information sought by the Deputy in relation to my Department's Covid-19 related expenditure on face masks and hand sanitiser is set out below.No expenditure was incurred in 2019.  

Value for money is always an important consideration for my Department when procuring goods and services.
