In the years 2004, 2005 and to date in 2006, the sum of €3,260.30 was spent by my Department on photographers for events held in my constituency and the constituency of the Minister of State, Deputy Tom Parlon. Details of these events, and associated expenditure on photographers, are set out in the table below.

No monies were expended by my Department, in the period in question, on publicity leaflet production in my constituency or the constituency of the Minister of State.

I have also asked the Office of Public Works to forward any information to the Deputy regarding any relevant amounts expended by that Office.
