I can confirm to the Deputy that my Department was established in August 2020 and commenced moving headquarters into existing State-owned office space in September 2021. Since moving my Department has secured the services of Accent Cleaning Solutions to provide contract cleaning within the building and there is one private cleaner on site Monday – Friday. To date, my Department has incurred costs of €18,539.90 for the period October 2021 to October 2022 (inclusive). I can further confirm to the Deputy that my Department does not employ private security services.
