COI / UK Government

COI (or Central Office of Information as it used to be known) is the main organisation responsible for commissioning or coordinating public information marketing on behalf of the British government. It is a body of non-political civil servants which acts as the client in largescale initiatives between advertising agencies and governmental departments. Increasingly it advises individual departments on all aspects of communications strategy and operates the main governmental PR function, issuing press releases and briefings to the media.
