As regards the first part of the Question, I have not received such a report and I do not propose to ask for one. I have no function in regard to information of the kind requested in the second and third parts of the Question.
Is the Minister prepared to see £122,000 of public money thrown down the drain by members of the Board gallivanting all over Europe?

There was a sum of £122,000 spent last year in Miami.
