ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 24TH FEBRUARY 2009
Question
Given that figures presented to the Assembly on 3rd February 2009, in response to my written question on consultancy fees, reveal that the Transport and Technical Services Department has, since 2004, paid out a sum of £4,795,919 to consultants relating to the solid waste strategy/incinerator (with nearly £1.7 million being paid out in both 2007 and 2008) could the Minister provide a year-by-year (2004 to 2009) breakdown of exactly what work has been produced by the consultants for these sums?
Answer
The table below provides the Deputy with a breakdown of the expenditure incurred in the period 2004-9 for consultants work undertaken in respect to the Energy from Waste plant. Members should be aware that within each of the headings in the table, there are many individual elements of work. The most significant costs incurred in 2007-8 were in relation to the preparation of the performance specification for the plant, managing and evaluating the tender process and preparing the final contract documentation. Each year also includes the relevant Client Project Management Costs.
