The cost of official domestic and overseas travel, including the cost of accompanying officials, since my appointment as Minister for Finance in June 2017 is €25,863.13. The Deputy may note that €11,744 of this cost relates to accompanying officials. The remainder pertains to me and is in respect of flights, accommodation, car hire and other expenses.
It should be noted that costs associated with one of my political advisors that I have appointed since coming to office in June 2017 is charged to the Department of Finance.
