Please include any invoices and details of these trips (cost, dates, locations & who was aboard). Finally, please also provide any communication (letters, emails, memos, WhatsApp/text messages) sent or received by the Department relating to the unavailability of the XXXX or any other Air Corps aircraft for the Ministerial Air Transport Service over the same period.
