The total amount of fees received by my Department and its Offices from Freedom of Information requests in 2014 and up to the end of the third quarter in 2015 were €755.98 and €70.00, respectively.
The intake of fees has dropped dramatically following the introduction of the FOI Act 2014 which abolished the up-front application fee of €15 for non-personal requests.
