Question:1 Miss Harney asked the Taoiseach if the Government press secretary is free to engage in party political fund-raising. [7555/96]
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Party Political Fund-Raising.
In my reply to the House on 27 March 1996, I outlined the role and functions of the Government press secretary. Under the terms of his contract, the Government press secretary may not engage in party political activities such as fund-raising, nor has he done so.
May I take it that it is part of his contract that he cannot do it?
Yes.
