RICU activities
Dear Home Office,
Please could I ask how much of the present Research, Information and Communications Unit (RICU) budget for advertising, media engagement and other messaging activities have been assigned to countering coronavirus disinformation.
How many personnel are working part time or full time on coronavirus counter-disinformation activities? When did such activities commence?
If I still have scope within the allowed budget of this FOI request - please could I also see daily advertising spend on counter-coronavirus disinfo in the first 2 weeks of April?
Yours faithfully,
Dr Emma L Briant
