Micheál Martin: Will the Taoiseach outline for the House the number of staff in his Department who cover social media, contributions, advertising, putting up posts, video messaging and so on? Is this done by Government Information Service, GIS, staff or is it a mixture of GIS staff and political staff? Who co-ordinates all of that? Is there a difference between promoting Government campaigns and personal...
- Ceisteanna (Atógáil) - Questions (Resumed): Departmental Advertising Budgets (28 Nov 2018)
Micheál Martin: That is the core point. I asked about the costs of the video for the UN Security Council campaign. Perhaps the Taoiseach would comment on the cost and necessity of that. The issue is to try to differentiate between Government spend, party spend and party promotion. Unfortunately, many of the campaigns the Taoiseach has spoken of - even Creative Ireland and others like it - have not been...

- Ceisteanna (Atógáil) - Questions (Resumed): Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements (28 Nov 2018)
Micheál Martin: I appreciate that the Taoiseach's visit was short and I welcome the fact that he went to Mark Durkan's former college to honour him. The Taoiseach was honouring a remarkable contribution to politics and to peace on the island of Ireland. Mr. Durkan was a close confidant of, and great adviser to, John Hume. He was a member of the British Parliament. Regrettably, he lost his seat in the...
- Ceisteanna (Atógáil) - Questions (Resumed): Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements (28 Nov 2018)
Micheál Martin: I will deal with the Good Friday Agreement in the next question. Deputy McDonald put forward the idea, I am sure the Taoiseach will agree with me, that the SNP is not very relevant to the debate in Westminster in a number of ways. For example, if the SNP were to vote in favour of the withdrawal agreement or aspects of it, it would pass by a wide margin. SNP Members have been involved in...
