Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 17 February 2005
96 Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment further to the reply of 27 January 2005 in respect of the use of credit cards in his Department, the total expenditure involved and the various transactions covered by credit card payment during the period in question; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [5486/05]
Amharc ar fhreagraIt is the policy of my Department that holders of credit cards obtained through the Department are responsible for the settlement of the credit card accounts. Official expenditure, irrespective of whether it was met by credit card or other means, is reimbursed on foot of a claim supported by receipts. Accordingly, the Department does not have information on the total expenditure by credit card, or details of transactions covered by credit card payment.
