Expenditure incurred by my Department on legal costs to date in 2012 amounts to €78,000. Such costs relate to settlements in respect of legal actions involving the Department, and the provision of legal advice. It is not anticipated that further significant legal costs will arise in 2012. However if notified of any such costs my Department will endeavour to settle same from within current resources.
