Róisín Shortall

Question:

138 Ms Shortall asked the Minister for Transport the total estimated cost of changes, including the dis-use of old stationery, the purchase of new letterheads, stationery, and changes to websites and so on and all other costs incurred as a result of the creation or change in his departmental name and responsibilities; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [18791/02]

Minister for Transport (Mr. Brennan)

The costs associated with changes such as stationery, new letterheads, website etc., are unlikely to exceed €11,000. The website was in the course of revision prior to the change in Department. Additional costs in relation to staff moves and accommodation cannot be finalised until the necessary accommodation arrangements have been completed.
