Indecon International Economic Consultants were retained, following a tender process, by the Department of Social Protection in 2012 to undertake an evaluation of the JobBridge scheme. Indecon has not been retained for any other purpose. As the price submitted by Indecon was submitted as part of a competitive tender process and is considered commercially confidential, I will not disclose the fee at this time. I am aware Deputy that the fee was competitive and that the work of Indecon was produced to a high standard.
