Structure


The Director-General of GCIS is also the official spokesperson for government. She chairs the GCIS Executive Committee (Exco), a strategising body who integrates, coordinates and rationalises the work of GCIS and government communication.
The Government Communication and Information System (GCIS) is made up of three branches, each lead by a Deputy Director-General (DDG). Each GCIS branch is divided into chief directorates, managed by chief directors.
The organogram below shows the three GCIS branches with their chief directorates. You can click on any of these to get more information, including functions of sub-units and contact information of relevant managers.
