Barrett asked the Minister for Tourism and Transport (a) the names [1571] of all persons who are provided with cars by the State, excluding members of the Government, (b) the Departments of State, semi-State agencies and boards constituted by the Government where these persons are employed and the offices they hold, (c) the number of drivers employed, the total cost in each case and the type of use for which these cars are permitted and (d) the total overall cost to the State.

Minister for Tourism and Transport (Mr. Wilson) John P. Wilson

Minister for Tourism and Transport (Mr. Wilson): No persons employed in my Department are provided with cars by the State.

Where cars are provided for chief executives in State bodies operating under the aegis of my Department, the principles laid down in paragraph 10.76 of report No. 20 of the Devlin Review Body are applicable. Where cars are provided for other staff of those State bodies and private use is permitted, the principle which applies is that 25 per cent of the list price at time of purchase is payable annually to the body concerned.
