My Department currently has 19 agencies under its aegis, of which there are 12 commercial and 7 non-commercial agencies. The information requested by the Deputy is an operational matter for the agencies and I have referred your question to them for a direct reply.
Please advise my private office if you do not receive a reply within 10 working days.
