The estimate for spend to date for the SCU is €2.2 million. This spend is primarily associated with citizen focussed information campaigns such as: Healthy Ireland, Global Ireland, Education Action Plan, Bliain Na Gaeilge, Self-Employed Benefits, Legislation, Irish Aid and Project Ireland 2040.
In addition, spend has been allocated to the Gov.ie migration, the citizen survey on public awareness and understanding of government services, the Unified Identity Programme and the Continuing Professional Development programme, in alignment with the Government approved communications programme.
