I can inform the Deputy that up to 19 October, 2015, my Department has received 827 Freedom of Information Requests.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to provide the Deputy with the breakdown as requested above, as those statistics are not readily available. To provide the figures would involve a disproportionate amount of time by the staff collating the information.
