The Health Promotion Unit of the Health Service Executive has responsibility for promotion of policies in relation to public health.  Within the Department, we have surveyed units which engage in public information campaigns and responses returned are as follows:

2017Healthy Ireland - wall calendar 10,000

As not all units have yet made returns, I will contact the Deputy again if further relevant information is submitted.
