View answerFourteen reports have been published since the establishment of my Department in June 2002. Details of the reports published — the name of each report, the estimated cost of each report, the date of publication of each report and the length of time it took to prepare each report — are given in the following appendix. In relation to estimated costs, it should be noted that amounts quoted in respect of reports prepared by the Department reflect printing and publication costs, while those in respect of reports commissioned externally also include the costs of staff of the company commissioned to produce the report.
