This Department does not separately account for expenditure related to the Official Languages Act and so the information sought is not directly available. However, information on translation and advertising costs, excluding VAT, currently to hand is as follows: costs to 30 June 2005 —€54,680; estimated costs for July to December 2005 —€128,000.
The provision in my Department's administrative budget is expected to be sufficient to meet any needs arising in the current year.
