167. To ask the Minister for Finance the total external public relation costs incurred by his Department in 2011 to 2013, inclusive, and estimated in 2014. [17372/14]

I take it that the Deputy is referring solely to external public relations costs and not to advertising costs that would be incurred by my Department in the normal course of business, such as entries into telephone directories, the placing of advertisements in national newspapers, recruitment advertising, etc. For the years in question (2011 2014 to date) no such costs were incurred by my Department. There is no specific allocation for external public relations spend in 2014.
