299. Deputy Timmy Dooley asked the Minister for Finance the amount spent by his Department on designing, implementing and supporting the Eircode system in each of the years from 2011 to 2016 and to date in 2017, in tabular form. [28139/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraI wish to advise the Deputy that my Department has not incurred any cost in designing, implementing and supporting the Eircode system in each of the years from 2011 to 2016 and to date in 2017.
Since the introduction of Eircode, efforts made by my Department in implementing it include incorporating Eircodes into all departmental/office addresses on our websites, on new stationery and in email signatures. In addition, the relevant Eircodes are included in public consultation exercises, publications, presentations and other corporate communications.
The Department will continue to incorporate Eircode into new systems, forms and processes as they are developed.
