My Department did not have a stand at the National Ploughing Championships, 2018. However, the Office of Emergency Planning (OEP) provide up to two staff on each day of this event to promote the Government's annual "Be Winter Ready" Information Campaign, within the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine’s stand. This space is provided at no cost to my Department. The only costs, other than salary costs for the staff involved, are Civil Service travel and subsistence costs incurred by the individual staff members. These costs have not been fully processed for this year’s event.
