View answerI wish to inform the Deputy that my Department does not currently employ any persons or firms to deal with public relations.
From August 2019 to January 2020, my Department had a public relations contract with Daniel J. Edelman Ireland Limited. This contract was for the provision of specialist advice on using social media in overseas markets to promote Ireland for Finance. The value of this contract was €29,274 (incl. VAT).
