It proactively determines where there is a need for information to be communicated or published, as well as responding in an agile way to incoming requests. The function uses a variety of channels, leveraging technology and real-time information, to ensure the Minister upholds their commitment of democratic accountability to citizens, the Oireachtas, the media and other stakeholders.
