Question:

253. Deputy Pearse Doherty asked the Minister for Finance further to the Supreme Court judgment in the case of the National Asset Management Agency and the Office of the Commissioner for Environmental Information, the total legal fees incurred by the agency in the case to date; and the estimate of all legal costs, including those of the Office of the Commissioner for Environmental Information. [26060/15]

Written answers

Minister for Finance

I am advised by NAMA that it has incurred total legal costs of €132,000 since the case commenced.  As the Office of the Commissioner for Environmental Information is not a body under the aegis of the Department of Finance, details of their legal costs are not available to me.
