I propose to take Questions Nos. 153 and 154 together.

Details of expenditure incurred by my Department and its Offices during 2018 on social media advertising and online promoted content are set out in the following table.  To date in 2019 no amount has been spent in this regard; projects where the use of social media may be considered worthwhile will be considered on a case by case basis.
