Written Answers. - Departmental Costs.

Ivor Callely

Question:

383 Mr. Callely asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry the cost to date of all ministerial photography in his Department since December 1994; if he will give a breakdown of such costs for himself and the Ministers of State at his Department. [12959/97]

Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry (Mr. Yates)

I refer the Deputy to my reply to Question No. 147 on Wednesday 30 April last in relation to the costs of ministerial photographs for 1995 and 1996. The costs for 1997 to date are £1,964.50.

It is not possible to give a breakdown of these costs between the Minister and Minister of State.
