My Department and the National Economic and Social Development Office (NESDO) have made the following efforts to encourage and promote the use of Eircode:

- The websites Taoiseach.gov.ie, MerrionStreet.ie and nesc.ie have been updated to include the relevant Eircode;

- All Departmental databases have been updated to include my Department’s Eircode. Space has also been provided for the inclusion of an Eircode on the recipient address line;

- All headed notepaper purchased since the introduction of Eircode has included the relevant Eircode in the address line;

- All business cards ordered since the introduction of Eircode include my Department’s Eircode;

- All staff have been requested to insert the relevant Eircode in their email signature if their signature contains their full work address; and

- Grant application forms have been amended to include my Department’s Eircode.
