My Department offers both landline and LoCall numbers for anyone wishing to contact its offices. The rates charged for the use of 1890 (LoCall) numbers is a matter for each service provider and, therefore, the Department has no control over this matter.  However, the Department’s website does indicate clearly to customers that rates charged may vary among different service providers.  

The information requested in relation to organisations under the aegis of my Department is a matter for the individual bodies concerned.  Arrangements have been put in place by each Agency to facilitate the provision of information directly to members of the Oireachtas.  The contact email address for each agency is set out in the table.
