The following table outlines the annual cost of the new scheme introduced for the provision of drivers for Ministers in 2011 and to date in 2012. The figure includes salary, mileage and subsistence costs.
Office | Annual Cost to date |
Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation | €85,411.15 |
The costs of the previous ministerial transport scheme of Garda drivers and state cars were paid by the Department of Justice. My Department does not have those details and I therefore cannot provide a comparison of the annual cost of the two schemes.
