Figures reveal Senators’ publicly-funded print run ahead of election

Senators seeking to be elected to the Dáil make up nine of the top 10 places on the publicly funded Oireachtas printing facility, new figures show.

Since January 1, the taxpayer has funded the printing for senators of more than 850,000 items including newsletters, sympathy cards, calendars, compliments slips, and other documents highlighting their work to the public.
