I propose to take Questions Nos. 127 to 129, inclusive, together.

My Department or the Offices that come under the aegis of my Department carried out, or intend to carry out, the advertising campaigns listed in the following table during 2008 to promote policies or programmes being implemented by my Department. The costs of advertising in publications, broadcast advertising, outdoor advertising and any consultancy or production costs incurred up to the end of May 2008 for each of the advertising campaigns are provided in column 2 of the following statement, while corresponding figures for the period June-December 2008 are provided in column 3 of the following statement.

I am not in a position to supply the information requested by the Deputy in relation to the agencies, boards, quangos or other bodies within the remit of my Department for the years 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 as any such advertising campaigns would be operational matters for the bodies concerned, where I have no function.
