As the Deputy is aware, the name of my Department was officially changed on 2nd May last from the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment to the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Innovation. The estimated costs associated with this name change are anticipated to be in the region of €10,000. This includes the costs of stationery, signage and changes to my Department's website. Every effort has been made to keep costs, which will be provided from within my Department's existing resources, to a minimum. Where possible, work associated with the name change has been undertaken in-house by the staff in my Department.

The vast majority of the tasks, associated with my Department's name change, have already been completed, and any outstanding work will be completed over the coming weeks. It is not possible to provide a breakdown of final costs for these changes at this point.
