Question 378: To ask the Minister for Education and Science if it is policy in her Department to restrict members of political organisations or individuals other than members of the media from receiving press releases relating to her Department by e-mail; if so, the reason this is the case; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

Press releases from the Department of Education and Science are all readily available, on issue, on the Department's website www.education.ie, under the link for Press Room.
Outside groups, including political organisations, are also included in the circulation list for direct electronic receipt of copies of press releases.
This circulation list is updated on a regular basis and I am happy to make arrangements to include any further e-mail contacts that the Deputy wishes to have included. I have asked the Press Office of the Department to make contact with the Deputy's office to request the relevant e-mail details.
