While researching this yesterday I came across a parliamentary question which Deputy Creed put to every Department in October 2012. The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade's answer went through the allowances payable by the Department, starting with allowances that are common to more than one Department and to which every civil servant would be entitled. Then it listed some that are specific to the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and then allowances paid to officers serving at missions abroad. That includes the cost of living, local post and representation allowances. Are those figures all included in the €77 million?
