Question:415 Mr. Callely asked the Minister for Transport, Energy and Communications the total cost of non-civil or public service staff attached to his office in 1995; the anticipated costs in 1996; and if he will give the comparative figures for each of the years 1987 and 1988. [20012/96]
The total salary costs of non-civil or public service staff attached to my office in 1995 was £47,489. The anticipated costs in 1996 are £103,816. It is not possible to give the Deputy comparative figures for the years of 1987 and 1988 as the areas of Transport, Energy and Communications were spread between three different Departments at that stage.
