Department of Public Expenditure, Infrastructure, Public Service Reform and Digitalisation This request is being made under the Freedom of Information Act 2014 and in light of the recent FOI from the Irish Times, I have grave concerns over the monitoring of Irish Social Media by government departments. As such, I am requesting any similar information that your department is collecting on Irish social media commentary on the actions of your department. In order to be perfectly clear, I would like to receive any information (posts, comments, shares/retweets, likes etc.) that your department has been collecting and collating from Irish Social Media. While the information published by the Irish Times could be said to be collecting as a means of ‘gauging public opinion’, the information I am requesting does not need to inherently do the same, but if you could include the purpose for which it was collected, that would be much appreciated. I'd like to access records from January 2019 to today, August 19th 2020
