I wish to advise the Deputy that my Department has no records of any contracts valued over €10 million in the last five years.

The bodies under the aegis of my Department have provided the below information.

Central Bank of Ireland

The Central Bank has included details of all relevant contracts signed in the years 2020 – 2025.

A contract for the provision of custodian and related services to the National Treasury Management Agency (NTMA) for funds controlled and managed by it was concluded in mid- June 2025. It is anticipated that the contract value will be in excess of €10,000,000, however the precise value and duration of the agreement will be based on services utilised in line with the provisions of the contract award notice for this procurement, setting out all relevant and required detail will be published shortly.

NTMA Frameworks are typically awarded on the basis of individual framework agreements pursuant to which separate call-off contracts are put in place. A total estimated value for such future call-off contracts anticipated to be awarded under the framework is published as part of the contract award notice. While there have been NTMA Frameworks established with estimated values in excess of €10,000,000, there have been no individual contracts awarded under any NTMA framework in excess of €10,000,000.

Contracts entered into by the NTMA (when acting as the State Claims Agency) in the performance of its statutory mandate in relation to claims management (such as medical and non-medical expert witness services and Barrister services) are not included in this response.   

Contracts entered into by the NTMA (when acting as the National Development Finance Agency) in the performance of its statutory mandate to procure, deliver and provide advice on public infrastructure projects on behalf of State Authorities are not included in this response.  

The NTMA provides certain business and support services and systems to Home Building Finance Ireland and the Strategic Banking Corporation of Ireland. Procurement services are one such service provided to these bodies.
