I propose to take Questions Nos. 605 to 607, inclusive, together.

I have seen the sixth report of the Alcohol Marketing Communications Monitoring Body (AMCMB) and have approved it for publication. The secretariat of the AMCMB has advised my Dept that meetings held by the AMCMB were: in 2006 - 4, 2007 - 6, 2008- 4, 2009 - 4, 2010 - 5, 2011 - 5 and 2012 to date 3. Payments made to the ASAI to oversee the AMCMB sponsorship codes were: 2007- €45,064.40; 2008 - €71,990; 2009 - €88,725; 2010 - €52,906; 2011 - €58,488; 2012 - €33,196 to date. The figure for 2006 will be sent to the Deputy once it becomes available.
