My Department does not have a designated press officer or stand-alone press office.
One of my appointed special advisors, Mr Jerry O'Connor, has special responsibility for communications. Mr O'Connor took up the role after my appointment in mid 2016.
There are currently two civil servants in my Department who typically service the day-to-day press office requirements of my Department's communications and corporate governance unit.
