Publication Scheme for MARA
Section 8 of the Freedom of Information Act, 2014 requires FOI bodies to prepare and publish as much information as possible in an open and accessible manner on a routine basis outside of FOI, having regard to the principles of openness, transparency and accountability as set out in Sections 8(5) and 11(3) of the Act. This allows for the publication or giving of records outside of FOI provided that such publication or giving of access is not prohibited by law. The scheme commits FOI bodies to make information available as part of their normal business activities in accordance with this scheme.

Public Procurement
Is éard atá i soláthar poiblí ná ceannach oibreacha, soláthairtí agus seirbhísí ag comhlachtaí poiblí. Réimsíonn sé ó ghnáthsholáthairtí nó seirbhísí a cheannach go dtí tairiscintí foirmeálta agus conarthaí a shocrú do thionscadail mhóra bhonneagair.
Key Principles
Príomhphrionsabal an tsoláthair phoiblí is ea go ndéantar é go hionraic, go cothrom, agus de réir na reachtaíochta soláthair agus an dea-chleachtais. Tá gach soláthar a dhéanann comhlachtaí poiblí faoi réir iniúchtaí ag an Ard-Reachtaire Cuntas agus Ciste.
