Obviously, the Minister of State will revert to us on the matters raised to enable us to complete our consideration of the Revised Estimate. I have a question for him also, but I do not expect him to answer it now. However, I would appreciate receiving an answer to it at the next meeting. Will the Minister of State give the committee a note on the Department's legal costs year on year and a list of properties that are vacant and outline the security costs associated with its properties throughout the country? The Minister of State has a breakdown of the figure spent on Áras an Uachtaráin. We would appreciate it if that figure was provided for the committee secretariat.
