The information requested by the Deputy is set out in the table below.

Details of my expenses are also published on my Department's website www.gov.ie/en/organisation-information/e9c55-ministerial-expenses/#2024

These include travel and subsistence costs in respect of domestic and foreign travel. Personal expenses incurred by accompanying officials are claimed by the individual officers in accordance with applicable Civil Service procedures.

All flights relating to these trips were booked in accordance with Government Guidelines. My Department makes an annual payment to the Climate Action Fund scheme, administered by the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications to offset emissions for travel on commercial flights, in accordance with Circular 01/2020 (D/PER).
