That is what the story says. The Taoiseach makes the point that there was no additional cost. Can he confirm that with the Department? Has it provided the figure for the additional cost? Obviously, there had to be an additional cost. Is it not the case there were flights already booked home through Dubai and then the Department booked other flights through Toronto? Can the Taoiseach outline the costs associated with his party of seven?
