The Department does not pay for the private travel undertaken by me or by staff in my private office, nor does the Department pay for accommodation for my private office staff which is associated with their private travel. There were no legal or consultancy fees for myself  or for my private office for the twelve month period to 30 June 2015.  The costs of hotel accommodation for myself and my private office, in respect of work for my Department, are set out in the table.
