My Department ensures, to the greatest extent possible, that our published video content is accessible and includes closed captioning or subtitling.

In 2024, 100% of videos posted on our social media channels were captioned.

No videos with Irish sign language translations were posted.

The information requested in relation to the agencies under the aegis of my Department is an operational matter for each agency. The Department will request the relevant bodies to reply directly to the Deputy with the information requested in respect of their organisations
