I have been provided with a Garda car under the Ministerial transport scheme and do not use a private car for official purposes. The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade pay transport and salary costs in relation to Minister of State Creighton and the Department of Defence pay salary costs in relation to Minister of State Kehoe.
