I can advise the Deputy that the legal costs incurred by the State's legal team in defending cases in which I am named as a party are not met directly by my Department. In accordance with established financial procedures such costs are generally charged to the Chief State Solicitors Office (CSSO) Vote as sanctioned by the Attorney General (AG).
Accordingly my Department does not hold the information sought by the Deputy in relation to the cases referred to.
