The Transfer of Functions Order, bringing Tourism and Sport functions to my Department, was approved by Government on Tuesday, 15 September 2020, and came into effect the following day. Media functions were transferred to my Department with effect from the 23 of September with the Heritage functions and Islands functions transferring out of my Department with effect from 9 September and 23 September respectively
Work has been ongoing between officials in my Department and the Office of the Government Chief Information Officer at the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform to create a website for the newly configured Department to be integrated into Gov.ie and this will go live shortly.
In the meantime, information in relation to Sport, Culture and Tourism and other activities, particularly those impacted by new Covid-19 guidelines, are available here: https://www.gov.ie/en/campaigns/resilience-recovery-2020-2021-plan-for-living-with-covid-19/.
