It has not been possible, in the time available, for my officials to collate the information sought by the Deputy. My Department has changed its financial management systems over the period since 1997 and therefore it is not feasible to provide the information requested by the Deputy for the years prior to 2002. However, I will write to the Deputy shortly with the information he has requested for the period 2002 to 2008 inclusive.
