Three legal cases have been taken against my Department since it was established in 2017. One of these included a judicial review which was subsequently withdrawn. The total costs to date associated with one of the other two cases is €11,543, which relates to disclosure order costs. The third case was settled, with the settlement subject to a non-disclosure agreement.
