Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 21 November 2017
301. Deputy Mattie McGrath asked the Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht the average costs associated with processing and answering written and oral parliamentary questions; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [49120/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe input of departmental officials into the responses to Parliamentary Questions is part of their day to day duties in my Department. It is not possible to provide the Deputy with the information sought as it would be difficult to disaggregate the costs associated with officials answering priority, written and oral Parliamentary Questions and consequently, the specific costs are not monitored.
