Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 6 November 2018
221. Deputy Tony McLoughlin asked the Minister for Finance the amount his Department has spent in 2018 on carrying out commissions of investigation and State inquiries as recommended by the independent review mechanism and State tribunals; the number and name of these investigations; the individual costs in relation to same; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [45911/18]
View answerI am not the specified Minister in respect of any Commissions of Investigation conducted during the course of 2018, nor am I directly responsible for any ongoing Tribunals of Inquiry. Therefore I have not incurred any costs in carrying out any such Commissions of Investigation or State Inquiries during 2018.
However, my Department has been asked to provide information to the Commission of Investigation relating to IBRC and to the Commission of Investigation relating to NAMA. Some expenditure has arisen in responding to those requests for information.
