(ii) Expenditure incurred by Bord na Móna is accounted for in their annual accounts which are published. I consider that I would not be justified in requiring Bord na Móna to furnish for publication an account of expenditure additional to that in the form approved in 1976 by the then Minister for Transport and Power after consultation with the Minister for Finance.
(iii) I am informed by Bord na Móna that these particulars are confidential and cannot be furnished.
