I am informed by the Garda Authorities that the information available in respect of to date in 2006 and for the previous two years is set out in the following table:
Year | Texaco | ESSO | Statoil | Imprest |
â'¬ | â'¬ | â'¬ | â'¬ | |
2004 | 364,926 | 729,863 | 4,507 | 5,273,438 |
2005 | 751,192 | 919,141 | 2,056,516 | 4,237,965 |
2006 year to date | 1,397,441 | 1,324,873 | 2,901,100 | 1,023,920 |
I am further informed that the fuel expenditure from imprest accounts has reduced with the advent of central billing; however, some stations still buy the fuel locally through an Imprest Account. Records of fuel spending from imprest accounts are maintained at Divisional/District offices. A detailed breakdown of spending for Shell and for the years 2002 and 2003 is not readily available.
