It has not been possible to collate the information requested by the Deputy in the time allowed.
I will write to the Deputy directly when the information is available.
The following deferred reply was received under Standing Order 51:
I refer to your Parliamentary Question No. 580 which was for answer on 21 February 2023 and which asked: To ask the Minister for Justice the amount expended on advertising and promotion in his Department and all agencies under the remit of his Department in 2022 and in January 2023; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
You will recall that at the time, I undertook to seek the information requested and revert to you. I can now confirm the amount spent on public awareness campaigns in my Department in 2022 was €3,352,787. There was no such expenditure incurred by my Department in January 2023.
The amounts spent by the agencies, bodies and offices under the aegis of my Department are provided in tabular form below.
