I wish to refer the Deputy to my response to Parliamentary Question No. 405 (ref: 27037/06) yesterday, Wednesday, 5 July, which sets out the Department's expenditure of the type in question. Information regarding the breakdown of payments under the headings listed by the Deputy is not readily available and could not be collated without the allocation of a disproportionate amount of staff time.
