I wish to inform the Deputy that my Department’s Press Office manages the official social media accounts on behalf of the Department in line with the Department’s social media policy. As part of the Press Office’s normal operation, both traditional print and social media are monitored for content of relevance to the work of my Department.
I am informed that a number of bodies under my Department’s aegis do not have social media accounts. For each of the bodies that has social media accounts, they do not have a policy of monitoring for criticism of government policy.
