The information on photography costs for my Department for the period from March 2011 to December 2017, inclusive, is set out in the following tables. These tables include the cost, the name of the photographer and the occasions involved.
Photographers are engaged for official purposes only. Local photographers are used on international visits, trade missions etc., to maximise cost efficiencies. Photography costs in my Department have reduced significantly in recent years. The 2017 expenditure of €10,969 represents a reduction of more than 85% when compared with expenditure of €83,398 in 2008.
Increasingly my Department utilises its own staff to take photographs in-house, thereby reducing costs.
