2986. To ask the Minister for Health whether her Department, or any agency operating under its aegis, including the HSE, have used reserved contracts or social clauses in their public procurement tenders in the past five years; if so, the nature of the reserved contract or social clause; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

My Department seeks to use Office of Government Procurement framework and templates when entering into contracts. These incorporate clauses promoting compliance with environmental, social and labour laws.
I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
Details for other bodies under the aegis of my Department are operational matters for the bodies concerned and the Deputy should contact the relevant Director/CEO/Registrar directly.
