The total amounts spent on taxi fares by my Department for the period 1 January, 2015 to 18 July, 2017 are outlined in the following table:
Year | 2015 | 2016 | up to 18 July 2017 | Total |
---|---|---|---|---|
Taxi fares | €33,757 | €32,031 | €16,872 | €82,660 |
There were no limousine fares for the above period.
Taxi costs are paid wholly and exclusively in the course of a person’s duties in carrying out Departmental business.
