I propose to take Questions Nos. 198 and 199 together.

Table A gives details of establishment dates and annual operating costs of the statutory bodies and agencies in receipt of exchequer funding, for which I have responsibility. Table B relates to statutory bodies and agencies for which I have responsibility and which are not in receipt of funding and as such operating costs are not included. As the Deputy is aware, there are a number of Government Offices for which I have responsibility, the accounts of which are published in the annual Appropriation Accounts. These offices are as follows:

Office of the Revenue Commissioners

Office of the Comptroller and Auditor General

Office of Public Works

Office of the Ombudsman

Office of the Information Commissioner

Standards in Public Office Commission

State Laboratory

Valuation Office

Public Appointments Service

Office of the Commission for Public Service Appointments
