Written Answers. - Christmas Cards.
308.
A total of 261 Christmas cards were issued from my office. Some were delivered by hand in the course of normal departmental messenger deliveries. The rest were despatched as departmental post and there is no separate postage record. The cost of the cards themselves was £150.47.
As the Deputy may be aware, there is no Minister of State assigned to my Department.
