Vol. 475 No. 8
70 Mr. Callely asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs the number of reports or studies which have been commissioned by him since his appointment; the cost of each report in each case; whether the report has been made publicly available; and if not the reason, therefor. [6122/97]
71 Mr. B. Ahern asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs the number of consultants' reports commissioned by his Department since he took office; the number which have been completed; and the cost to date. [6138/97]
I propose to take Questions Nos. 70 and 71 together.
In replying to the Deputies' questions, I would refer them to my reply to Question No. 86 of 28 January, 1997 where many of the requested details have already been given. The update to those details is as follows:
