I wish to inform the Deputy that there are no staff in the Department of Finance employed specifically to work on marketing, media and social media.

There are currently 5 members of staff (one of whom is currently on maternity leave) in the Press Office. In addition, one of my Special Advisers, provides media advice as part of her role.
