125. Deputy Pa Daly asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform the number of communications managers employed by bodies under his Department's aegis (details supplied); the associated grades of each; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [47517/22]
View answerI wish to advise the Deputy that the Public Appointments Service (PAS) have informed me that its Head of Marketing and Communications leads a team with responsibility for marketing and communication of opportunities across the civil and public sector and with raising awareness of publicjobs.ie and stateboards.ie in new markets and among new audiences.
The Institute of Public Administration (IPA), the State Laboratory and the Office of the National Lottery Regulator do not specifically employ a Communications Manager. However, the IPA have advised that its Director of Humans Resources has a leadership function for all Corporate Communications.
The information requested for the remaining bodies under the aegis of my Department is set out in the table below.
