The details sought by the Deputy are set out in the table. I will advise the Deputy separately if any such payments were made during 2015.
It is the policy of the Department to keep costs in relation to the use of photographers to a minimum. Photographers are usually booked through the Press and Communications Office. From time to time individual units may incur other photography costs.
No photography costs are met from my Ministerial Allowance.
