asked the Minister for Labour the total annual rent paid by his Department and each semi-State body under the aegis of his Department for office accommodation in the city of Dublin; the rent per square foot for each office per annum; the length of time to the next rent review; and the property company or landlord to whom the rent is paid.

My Department do not rent office accommodation in Dublin, apart from the hiring of rooms for clinics held by the National Manpower Service which, I assume, does not come within the scope of the question. The information sought by the Deputy in regard to semi-State bodies is a matter for them and I have no function in the matter.
