The table below provides details of each time my Department awarded contracts for the services of consultants in 2022, the purpose of each consultancy and the value of each contract.

Watercraft Safety Consultancy in relation to Passenger Boat Licences in Civil Defence Units in various Local Authorities across the country. €12,240
ICT Consultancy Services for Development of the Digital Strategy €77,094
Preparation of a Preliminary Business Case to assist the Ministerial Air Transport Services Review Group in its deliberations €65,000

The only State body under the aegis of my Department is the Army Pensions Board. The Army Pensions Board is an independent statutory body established under the Army Pensions Act 1927 to provide for the payment of pensions, allowances and gratuities in certain circumstances to members of the Defence Forces. The Army Pensions Board did not award any consultancy contracts in 2022.
