Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport

I propose to take Questions Nos. 1023, 1024, 1026 and 1027 together.

While the information requested is publicly available on the port company's website, to assist the Deputy, the following table provides the information in respect of the persons for whom details were supplied.  As it was not a requirement at the time to detail individual Director's fees, the information for the years 1997 and 1998 is not readily available.  I have asked Dún Laoghaire Harbour Company to contact the Deputy directly when the information is available.  Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within ten working days.
