I propose to take Questions Nos. 225 and 226 together.

In relation to my Department I can confirm that the costs for the provision of social media training and consultancy for each year from 2011 - 2018 are set out in the following table.

The Department of Rural and Community Development was established on 19th July 2017. Therefore there is no expenditure in this timeframe.
