My Department does not employ any persons or firms in regard to public relations. The newly established Citizens’ Assemblies, which are staffed by my Department, have engaged Q4 Public Relations to provide media liaison and communication services. Its remit includes raising public awareness of the Assemblies' work and supporting communication and media outreach. Q4 also provide a press office service to engage with the media to respond to queries on the work of the Assembly. There has been no expenditure on this area, to date, in 2022.
