The Deputy may be aware that since 1 May 2011 all Cabinet Minister with the exception of Taoiseach, Tánaiste and Minister for Justice & Law Reform now use their own cars on official business. The following table lists the kilometre claims made by me in the period May to December 2011. The basis on which Ministers record their mileage does not require them to list individual trips. Mileage Claims May – December 2011
