Written answers

The details of payments issued by my Department in 2011 in respect of the supply of goods and services are set out in the table below. With regard to such expenditure by the Agencies under the aegis of my Department this is a day-to-day administrative matter for those Agencies in which I have no function. However, I have referred the Question to the Agencies for direct reply to the Deputy.
