The information sought in the question is available on the Oireachtas website, www.oireachtas.ie, which gives a comprehensive list of all legislation, including that prepared by my Department, in the period from 1997 to date. The following list details the holders of office of Minister for the Environment and Local Government or Environment, Heritage and Local Government in that time:

From January 1997 to June 1997: Mr. Brendan Howlin, T.D.,

From June 1997 to June 2002: Mr. Noel Dempsey, T.D.,

From June 2002 to September 2004: Mr. Martin Cullen, T.D.,

From September 2004 to June 2007: Mr. Dick Roche, T.D.,

From June 2007 to date: Mr. John Gormley, T.D.

The name of the Department was formally changed in June 2003 to reflect new responsibilities in the areas of built and natural heritage, nuclear safety and Met Éireann.
