Department for Transport written question – answered at on 24 February 2022.
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how much his Department has spent on producing social media videos and graphics for use on ministerial social media accounts since January 2020.
Department for Transport employs an in-house social media team to use digital channels and create content to communicate departmental policies online. It is often appropriate for content relating to Government policies, guidance and announcements, created by civil servants, to be amplified or posted on other channels including ministers' own social media accounts where this helps drive wider engagement from the public.
Content creation is one part of the digital team’s responsibilities, there is no individual cost per video or graphic created. The creation of these assets and any other communications products, is funded by the Department for Transport Communications Directorate staffing budget.
