My Department does not provide grants or other such supports to the Institute of International and European Affairs (known as the Institute of European Affairs up to July 2008). It has, however, been a corporate member of the Institute since 1993 and pays an annual membership fee in this regard.

Between 2000 and 27 January 2011, my Department has given €259,048.68 to the Institute of International and European Affairs and its predecessor, the Institute for European Affairs. This funding included fees for annual corporate membership for the Department, payments for the production and printing of publications on European matters, and payments for organising lecture series and participation in international meetings.
It has not been possible in the time available to determine the exact figures for funding given in the period 1991 to 1999. However, should the Deputy wish for further information on this my officials will endeavour to obtain it for him.
