Dáil Éireann Debate, Monday - 11 September 2017
917. Deputy Pearse Doherty asked the Minister for Health the cost his Department incurred in each of the past five years due to debit and credit card payment services and banking fees; the financial institutions to which the payments were made; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [37226/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraThere are two Bank of Ireland corporate credit cards for official business purposes currently in use in my Department. The cards are held by my Private Secretary and a nominated officer in my Department's Finance Unit. Until 2017 these cards operated on a no fees basis. Therefore, the costs incurred on these cards from 2012 to 2016 are the standard €120 per year annual card charge and €30 per year Stamp Duty charge.
For current account services for the period in question, a no fees agreement was in operation with Bank of Ireland.
