Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 21 February 2012
578 Deputy Niall Collins asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the total photography costs for his Department since coming to office; the list of occasions for which photographers were booked over the past year; the breakdown of costs associated with each occasion that a photographer was used; if there is a policy around the booking of photographers within his Department; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9656/12]
View answerPhotographers are booked for the purpose of recording key events attended by Ministers, such as the launch of schemes and programmes, new initiatives and visits by inward delegations. Where possible, the Press Office uses in house photography. The policy for booking a photographer for official purposes, is that, my Department's Press Office seeks 3 quotes in advance of each photo-shoot to keep costs to a minimum.
