Amharc ar fhreagraDuring 2015 a tender competition was run by the Office of Government Procurement on behalf of my Department for retirement planning courses. This resulted in a contract being awarded in September 2015. Unfortunately the service provider decided not to continue with the operation of the contract which concluded with courses being provided at the end of January. A new tender competition commenced on 18 January 2016.
