176. Deputy Colm Keaveney asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform further to Question No. 347 of 3 November 2015, the reason for the delay in providing a full and comprehensive response; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [41513/15]

I refer to my previous answer to Question No. 347 in which I informed the Deputy that the information was being collated and a detailed response would issue to the Deputy directly. I wish to advise the deputy that the information requested will be issued to him directly in the coming days.
