Public Accounts Committee

2018 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 22: Courts Service

9:00 am

Ms Angela Denning:

We have a contract with a media adviser who deals with various things such as answers to parliamentary questions and other things. He is not a media adviser as such but there are a lot of questions from journalists on a daily basis about court cases and he would assist them in deciding on where the line is between what can and cannot be reported. He did a lot of work on a case in the criminal courts of justice recently, assisting the media in access to the court and things like that where special arrangements had to be put in place.
