420 Mr. J. Higgins asked the Minister for Arts, Culture and the Gaeltacht the countries recently visited by him in connection with St. Patrick's Day celebrations; the countries visited by the Minister of State in his Department; the composition of the official party; and the total cost to the Exchequer in each case.
Thug mé cuairt ar Cheanada i ndáil le ceiliúradh Lá 'le Pádraig. Bhí mo Rúnaí Príobháideach in éineacht liom. Is é an costas taistil a thiteann ar mo Roinnse i dtaca leis an turas ná £5,061.
Anuas ar sin beidh costais eile le n-íoc, ar a n-áirítear costais chothaithe, óstáin, etc, ach níl ar mo chumas iomlán na gcostas sin a thabhairt ag an bpointe seo.
Ní raibh an tAire Stáit ag mo Roinnse thar lear i ndáil le ceiliúradh Lá 'le Pádraigh.
