Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 18 September 2014
102. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation the total cost to the Department and those under the aegis of the Department for the storage of records and archives that are ultimately intended to be forwarded to the National Archives; if he will provide this cost for 2012 and 2013; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [35422/14]
View answerThe cost of offsite storage for records that may be forwarded, in time, to the National Archive is set out in tabular format which follows.
The provisions of the National Archives Act, 1986, do not apply to Agencies under the aegis of my Department so the reply includes costs for the Department and its offices only.
