Minister within the Office of the Prime Minister, responsible for Public Affairs, Kwame McCoy, yesterday announced plans to centralise information from various government agencies.

Addressing communication personnel at a Communication Refresher Training hosted at the Arthur Chung Conference Centre, Liliendaal, the Department of Public Information (DPI) said that McCoy outlined the forthcoming changes aimed at creating a “more coordinated and strategic government communication apparatus”.

DPI said that McCoy emphasised the broader vision, stating, “This is just one part of what we need to do in terms of working with our communication and public relations officers in the respective ministry and agencies of government. From here, we will move into other areas in relation to professional development and, more so, in terms of how we become more strategic integrating into the government communication apparatus.”
