The Department's Annual Output Statement 2007 was placed in the public domain by being formally presented to the Select Committee on Foreign Affairs on 27 March 2007. The Committee warmly welcomed the presentation of this first Output Statement and stated that it was a "detailed and comprehensive statement that will be a useful reference for members".

In the light of the interest reflected in the Deputy's question, the Output Statement was placed on the Department's website ( www.dfa.ie ) on 18 October 2007. It can now be viewed on the "Publications" page, along with the Department's Annual Report for 2006.
