Minister for Culture, Communications and Sport

The details of the monitoring or enforcement arrangements in place by bodies under the aegis of my Department to ensure full compliance with Circular 05/2023 are an operational matter for those bodies.

However, I can confirm that the governance oversight arrangements operated by my Department, in terms of compliance assurance across state bodies, encompass relevant public procurement obligations.
