The overall cost to the State of the official visit by Mr. Zhu Rongji, Premier of the People's Republic of China, is not yet fully available, given that it covers a wide range of expenditure, including accommodation, transport, entertainment and security. I will, of course, be happy to supply the information required to the Deputy, as soon as it is received and processed.
