The following table indicates the cost of updating and maintaining the payroll system in my Department from 2004 to the present. These costs include maintenance, support, licensing and training but do not include hardware.

2004 21,034.89
2005 25,267.47
2006* 94,155.78
2007 31,055.32
2008 to date 29,585.92
*In 2006, an on-line payslip facility was implemented and the disaster recovery infrastructure was updated and enhanced.

The position regarding the HSE and other agencies is a matter for the agencies themselves. My Department is asking them to reply directly to the Deputy in this regard.
