As the Deputy may be aware, Brindley Advertising holds the Government contract for advertising in the print media (mainly for statutory and official notifications). Advertising is normally placed in the national papers and also regional newspapers and specialised journals, as appropriate.

The amounts spent on Brindley Advertising, television, radio advertising and internet media/promotional video are outlined in the following table.

In addition, the Department paid €78,500 in 2006 towards the international marketing campaign for the Offshore Islands.
