The following table sets out the total cost of commercial flights incurred by me and by my predecessor since January 2006:

YearTotal cost of commercial flights
2006 (Minister Roche)â'¬16,816.64
2007 (Minister Roche)â'¬4,381.87
2007â'¬13,257.89
2008â'¬9,785.79
2009â'¬3,117.44

It should be noted that, in some instances, the costs incurred were refunded to the Department by the European Council or by the Commission.
