The information requested by the Deputy is not readily available. The task of compiling the available information, which in the case of my Department would also extend to representations received through our network of overseas missions, would involve an inordinate amount of time and would not, in any event, give a comprehensive figure as many representations are received in person or by telephone and are not recorded in statistical form. I can inform the Deputy in general terms that I receive a very large number of representations across a broad range of issues from both Members of the Oireachtas and members of the general public.
