Written answers

In line with Circular 05/2023 – Initiatives to Assist SMEs in Public Procurement, all contracting authorities are required to publish contract award information for procurements valued over €25,000 (exclusive of VAT) following the completion of the award process.

The specific information sought in the Question relates to the operational practices of each State body and is not required to be held centrally by the Department.

I have asked the bodies under the aegis of my Department to revert to the deputy on the matter.
