Vol. 548 No. 4

Written Answers. - Legal Costs.

Michael Creed

Question:

227 Mr. Creed asked the Minister for Education and Science if his Department will cover the legal costs involved in a court case (details supplied). [5189/02]

Given the decision of the High Court in the case in question, it would not be appropriate for my Department to pay the legal costs involved and having regard to the accountability of my Department for the expenditure of public funds, any such payment would be contrary to sound financial and accounting practice.
