Set out below is a list of the air travel undertaken by me, using commercial airlines, in the calendar year 2006. In each case, the departure date and itinerary are supplied. My Department does not keep a record of distances flown. The Deputy should note that all of the travel undertaken was done so as part of my Ministerial functions, in particular in the promotion of Irish economic and business interests.
