The information on the costs of Commissions of Investigation for which I am the specified Minister are contained in the following table.
| Name | Cost | Date of Conclusion |
|---|---|---|
| Commission of Investigation in to the Dublin and Monaghan Bombings (MacEntee) | €2.63 million | March 2007 |
| Fennelly Commission of Investigation | €3.03 million (to end December 2016) | The timeframe for completion of the Commission's final report is by the end of March 2017. |
| Cregan/IBRC Commission of Investigation | €1.52 million (to end December 2016). Note: The IBRC Commission indicated in its Interim Report that significant third party costs have been incurred which are likely to arise for payment in due course. | The timeframe for completion of the first module of the Commission's work, in relation to the Siteserv transaction, is by the end of December 2017. |
It should be noted that figures provided for 2016 in respect of ongoing Commissions of Investigation are provisional figures and may be subject to end of year revisions, as part of the preparation of my Department's 2016 Appropriation Account.
