Approximately €31 million was expended across the civil service in 2007 on mileage expenses relating to official business.
Departments and offices are responsible for the day to day management of expenditure on mileage. Most of this expenditure relates to inspections, inquiries, visits etc to ensure compliance with regulations and that services are being delivered appropriately.
