I propose to take Questions Nos. 173 to 176, inclusive, together.

The position in relation to gifts accepted by the Minister for Finance is that a record of gifts is maintained solely for the purpose of Ethics in Public Office Act, 1995, i.e. where the value of the gift exceeds €634.87. Details of any such gifts are included in the returns made by the Minister for Finance under the Ethics in Public Office Act, which are in the public domain.
