Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment

I can confirm that 100% of my Department’s (and offices’) social media video content included subtitles during 2024. No video content included Irish Sign Language translations in 2024.

The social media activity of the agencies and public bodies under my Department’s remit is an operational matter for those agencies, and I do not have any direct function in these matters.
