Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 11 February 2014
605. Deputy Damien English asked the Minister for Health the total spent on advertising by his Department and each agency under his aegis in 2013; if he will provide a breakdown of the amount spent on each of TV, radio, print, outdoor, Internet and social media platform advertising; the amount spent on advertising agencies; if he will provide the information in tabular form; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6584/14]
View answerThe information requested by the Deputy is not immediately available within my Department. However, my Department did not spend any money on public relations or communications consultants during 2013. I will revert to the Deputy as soon as possible regarding advertising expenditure, if any. I have also requested the HSE to respond directly to the Deputy in this regard.
Operational responsibility for each agency lies with the respective Director/CEO/ Registrar.
