I propose to take Questions Nos. 168, 177 and 178 together.

The following table contains the details of the opening hours for public offices and telephone lines in respect of my Department and the agencies and state bodies associated with my Department. A formal study has not been carried out into the opening hours of public offices under the remit of my Department.

In relation to my Department itself, the opening hours are from 8:00am until 7:00pm and phonelines operate throughout this period.
