Since coming into office I have travelled on the government jet twice, both times in the company of other Government Ministers. I travelled to Luxembourg on both occasions for Environment Council meetings and, on both occasions, the government jet had already been requested by colleague Ministers; its use by me meant that the time I spent out of the country on official business on these occasions could be kept to a minimum.
