View answer110 Mr. J. O’Keeffe asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the reason there has been an undue delay in responding to Parliamentary Questions Nos. 113, 115 and 116 of 29 April 2004 and 204 of 27 May 2004 concerning the cost of policing the May Day protests 2004; if he will provide a full response; the measures which have been put in place to ensure that such delays are not repeated; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [19837/04]
View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 108 to 110, inclusive, together.
Due to the size and complexity of the security operation surrounding the EU enlargement ceremony and related events that took place over the weekend of 30 April 2004 to 3 May 2004, the information requested by the Deputy in respect of the associated costs has taken some time to collate. I have written to the Deputy with the details of the costs associated with these events.
