My Department's budget for 2018 has decreased by 2% compared to 2017. €5 million has been allocated to the Strategic Communications Unit of my Department for 2018. My Department does not delegate salary budgets to individual divisions/units. The salaries of the staff in the Strategic Communications Unit will be met from my Department's 2018 administrative salary budget.
All costs (including salary costs) incurred in 2017 by the Strategic Communications Unit will be met from within the existing resources of my Department.
