Office cleaning in 4 of the Department's 5 offices (cleaning in the Kildare Street HQ is organised by the anchor tenant)

June 2022

An initial period of two years with the option of  two further extensions of 12 month duration each.  The first extension was agreed to in June 2024.

Circa €115,000 per year

My Department has not outsourced any service/security officer roles to private companies.

In relation to bodies under the aegis of my Department, these are operational matters for the bodies themselves and not something for which I have direct, day-to-day responsibility.
