Written Answers - Beef Tribunal Costs.

Ivor Callely

Question:

171 Mr. Callely asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if he will give a breakdown of fees paid to date and fees submitted and not agreed or reduced by the taxing master in relation to each individual and organisation represented at the Tribunal of Inquiry into the Beef Industry. [26063/98]

The amount paid to date in respect of legal fees is £12,744,834.40 — £8,881,098.00 in respect of legal costs awarded by the Taxing Master (see table attached); £1,777,294.60 in respect of the legal fees of the State legal team; £1,865,476.80 in respect of the legal fees of the Tribunal legal team and £220,965.00 in respect of the legal fees of the Department of Tourism and Trade.

My Department has not received any further claims to date and would not be aware of cases before the Taxing Master.
