The incidental expenses incurred by my Department in the timeframe specified totalled €167,947.
This total was comprised of expenses in the following categories;
- Catering
- Conferences
- Subscriptions and professional memberships
- Bank charges
- Official entertainment
- Sundry office expenses
The overall objective is to keep costs of this nature to a minimum, and incidental expenses are only authorised by my officials when deemed necessary in the course of Departmental activity.
