I wish to inform the Deputy that my Department does not, as a matter of policy, incur public relations expenditure. However, expenditure does arise from time to time on public information notices such as, for example, the dangers of fireworks, illegal drug dealing or the bringing into force of new legislation and other statutory notices. The information requested concerning consultancy persons and organisations used by my Department in 2010 and 2011 is set out as follows.

2010
IBI Group (UK) Ltd26,978
Byrne O Cléirigh Consultants5,114
Equality Strategies Ltd8,167
2011
Byrne O Cléirigh Consultants3,993
