My Department anticipates that Eircode postcodes can be incorporated into address records on Department stationery with minimal costs. However, the level of stationery on hands at the time of introduction of the code will influence this basic cost.

It is anticipated that there will be some ICT development costs to integrate the Eircodes into my Department's differing registers and systems. These will be apportioned to the various Business Units/Offices involved and carried out in the normal course of business in conjunction with system developers as the need arises.
