153. To ask the Taoiseach the way in which his Department’s annual amount for contingent liability is set; the factors considered when setting contingent liability; if forecasting is undertaken regarding setting future amounts; the contingent liability figure for his Department for 2020; and if the contingent has been utilised to date in 2020.

No amount is set aside on an annual basis by my Department for contingent liabilities. Since 2016 my Department's Appropriation Account includes a note on contingent liabilities in references to ongoing legal cases which may generate future costs. My Department's Appropriation Account is published on an annual basis by the Office of the Comptroller and Auditor General.
