Department of the Legislative Assembly, Northern Territory Government

Mr GILES - 2014-02-19

Madam Speaker, yesterday there was a question about $2.5m being expended on advertising in relation to a request for tender. I said yesterday I was not sure of the amount spent by the previous government, but I can advise the amount spent by the previous government in the full financial year was $5 041 909, as opposed to $2 500 759 by this government. The expenditure of the $5m by the former Labor government does not include all their communications officers and other spin machines. Quite clearly, we do not spend anywhere near what Labor spent.
