616. To ask the Minister for Environment, Community and Local Government if he will provide a breakdown in tabular form, of all the different categories, types and levels of fees charged by each local authority here on a graveyard by graveyard basis in each year from 2008 to 2012; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

While my Department has responsibility for rules and regulations regarding burial grounds, this responsibility does not extend to the fees charged by local authorities. These costs are a matter for each local authority in respect of the cemeteries and burial grounds they provide. My Department does not hold information on the various fees charged on graveyards provided by local authorities.
