Who we follow

If you follow us, we will not automatically follow you back. This is to help our followers identify other Twitter  accounts  that  we  are  following  such  as  other  Government  Departments,  Houses  of  the Oireachtas, relevant European institutions and accounts of particular relevance to Ireland.

@Replies and Direct Messages

We  welcome  feedback  from  our  followers  and  will  try  to  join  the  conversation  where  possible.
However,  we  will  not  be  able  to  reply  individually  to  all  the  messages  we  receive  via  Twitter.  The best means of communicating a query to the Office of Emergency Planning is by availing of various contact options outlined here.
