I can inform the Deputy that the number of State Boards, agencies, regulators or other bodies currently under the remit of my Department is 25. The identification of the records requested by the Deputy cannot be facilitated without undue commitment of staff resources and administrative cost. In addition there was a number of changes of configuration of the Department over the period which further impedes the identification of the records sought.
