With the exception of payments of €6,410 to Dublin City Council in respect of waste collection and €7,300 to Veolia (Luas Company) in respect of the Department's staff Travel Pass scheme no other advance payments have been made in respect of works or services commissioned by my Department. As I have no function in the matter, information is not available in my Department on such day-to-day operational matters in relation to local authorities or bodies under the aegis of my Department.
