asked the Minister for Finance whether his Department maintain any records of the sales in respect of each NIEC publication; and if these records show the volume of sales and to whom sold.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Sales of NIEC Publications.
17.
Mr. O'Leary
Records are kept of the volume of sales of each NIEC publication but not of the individual purchasers.
Mr. O'Leary
Is the Minister satisfied with the extent of sales so far, that it ensures widespread understanding of these reports?
Yes. The sales of the latest NIEC report have far exceeded those of previous reports emanating from the NIEC, and I might say that the parties represented on the NIEC may claim as many copies as they wish free of charge.
They, I hope, are not included in the details of the sales?
No, there are separate figures.
