The Central Office of Information (COI) is the UK government's marketing and communications agency.
It was established in 1946 after the wartime Ministry of Information was closed. COI celebrated its 60th anniversary in 2006 with several events including a film season at the National Film Theatre and a poll to find Britain's favourite public information film on the BBC website (bbc.co.uk).
COI works with Whitehall departments and public bodies[1] to produce information campaigns on issues that affect the lives of British citizens, from health and education to benefits, rights and welfare.
COI provides consultancy, procurement and project management across all areas of communications and marketing.
COI is also responsible for delivering Directgov, the government website that provides access to public sector services.
COI's Chief Executive reports to the Minister for the Cabinet Office.
