Public Accounts Committee

2016 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 2 - Department of An Taoiseach

9:00 am

Mr. Martin Fraser:

I am sure the Deputy is not misinterpreting. As far as I know, the advertising on public transport was free because it is the National Transport Authority and that would have happened before, as the Deputy knows. I have a breakdown here. There have been many parliamentary questions. If they asked about expenditure to date, the number was quite low but we were always very clear that the budget was €1.5 million. I think in the end we will spend roughly €750,000.
