My Department operates an account on X (formerly Twitter), using the handle @dcediy. My Department also operates accounts on Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn under the handle @dcediy and/or username Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration & Youth.

My Department does not pay a subscription/verification fee for these accounts. My Department's social media policy is available on gov.ie at the following link: www.gov.ie/en/organisation-information/481c3-dcediy-social-media-policy/
