Bertie Ahern (Dublin Central, Fianna Fail)

On a daily basis the Government Information Service dispenses information that comes through Departments, from Government itself or from Cabinet committees. It is mainly about reports or documentation approved for circulation for interested parties, whether it be farming, teachers or whatever. That is its ongoing job. There is not a day that it does not put out information either to a sector or more widely. As well, people seek old reports. There is a large amount of work for people trying to get reports that perhaps were published a year or two ago.
