About the Catholic Communications Office

The mission of the Catholic Communications Office (CCO) is to provide, on behalf of the Irish Catholic Bishops' Conference and its agencies and commissions, a professional communications service, and to liaise with laity, media, national and international Church organisations, other faiths and the voluntary, public and private sectors, so as to help convey the Christian message of the Catholic Church.

The CCO also assists Bishops, Diocesan Communications Officers and seminarians with the promotion of their pastoral work through the mass and online media.

Members of the Bishops' Communications Commission

The CCO is accountable to the Bishops' Commission on Communications, membership of which is as follows:
This Commission is part of the Department of Planning and Communications.

Diocesan Communications Officers

There are 26 dioceses on the island of Ireland and, upon request, the CCO operates as the press office for dioceses on issues requiring national publicity. In relation to news promotion, the staff of the CCO work in partnership with the designated Diocesan Communications Officer of each diocese. The CCO also acts as a 'clearing house' for information requests from the media and the public on local and regional issues and, as appropriate, the CCO refers diocesan-specific queries to the relevant diocese.
