Total legal fees for 2012 and 2013 for the Department are presented in the table. The Department in general, avails of legal services and advice from the Office of the Attorney General and the Office of the Chief State Solicitor. If there is a particular case that the Deputy requires details for, please contact me again and I will investigate further. I will revert to the deputy with the total legal costs for the Department for 2014 as soon as possible.
