My Department has only one small 1.5 cc Renault van which is used for the collection and delivery of documents etc for the Department within Dublin where the Department and its Offices are located in 6 different buildings. The Renault van was purchased new in June 2008 and is not due for replacement for some years. Last year the total cost of diesel fuel for the Renault van was €668.61 and the depreciation came to €2,718. The Service Officers who drive the 2008 Renault van for the Department do so as part of their normal duties.
