Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 12 February 2026
310. Deputy Matt Carthy asked the Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment the amount expended by his Department and by each agency for which he is responsible on advertising, promotion, advertising companies and external communications companies or consultants in 2025 and the expected costs for 2026, in tabular form; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [11350/26]
View answerI have set out below advertising expenditure by my Department in 2025 and forecasted for 2026. Advertising is undertaken to support the work of my Department across the broad range of activities within my remit.
The advertising activity by the agencies under my department’s aegis is an operational matter for those bodies, and I do not have any direct function in these matters.
