An Post delivered the English version for free, but postage for the Irish edition cost nearly €100,000.

"There was a serious waste of money there."
"They could have saved at least €100,000, even €130,000 by producing an Irish/English version and getting it delivered for free."
"There's serious questions to be answered by the Department for wasting that money."
