I am advised that the my Department has spent some €1,107,748 in respect of legal fees associated with litigation, advice and settlements over the past three years.
There are 12 State bodies under the aegis of my Department. The information sought in the Question is an operational matter for each of the State bodies concerned and, as such, it is not information held by my Department. It is suggested that the Deputy contact the Bodies directly in relation to this matter. Contact details for each body is set out in the following table.
