Ruairi Quinn (Dublin South East, Labour)

I am not imputing that for a moment.

In his supplementary question, my colleague raised the question of staff. If someone in the family of enterprise agencies, including Forfás, the IDA and Enterprise Ireland, needs to travel to Limerick for a meeting, what is the difference in what that person would get if he or she went by train instead of claiming mileage? I suspect that the cash in hand for mileage as distinct from reimbursement of the train ticket is significantly greater, which is why Deputy Eamon Ryan put that to the Minister in his supplementary question.
