I propose to take Questions Nos. 924 and 925 together.
An itemised breakdown of public relations/promotional expenditure is set out in the table. In 2017 expenditure amounted to €1,100,887.00. Expenditure to date in 2018 is €33,550.55. These figures cover the creation and distribution of marketing and promotional content aimed towards the public, but does not extend to ancillary administrative costs arising out of the creation of that content such as stationery, merchandise etc.
Concerning photography costs, the Department has increasingly relied on in-house capacity where possible in the past number of years.
Finally, it is worth noting that the largest portion of expenditure by far in both years went towards Cosc's "What Would You Do?" campaign on the prevention of domestic violence.
