I have outlined in tabular form the transport hire costs incurred by my Department since my appointment as Minister for Foreign Affairs in September 2004. These charges all relate to the hire of cars on official visits abroad. There have been no transport hire charges incurred by my office for travel in Ireland.
Transport Hire | Sept-Dec 2004 | 2005 | 2006 | 2007 (to date) |
Minister's Office | €12,263 | €65,776 | €69,803 | €18,609 |
