Union Advertising

The Hon. T.A. FRANKS (14:46): Supplementary: should the Malinauskas Minister for Infrastructure and Transport decide to go ahead with his bid to ban such advertising, will that ban also apply to other bodies such as the AHA, the AMA, and all industrial bodies which seek to promote themselves in the public sphere of advertising?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (14:47): I thank the honourable member for her question, and I will have to clarify it but I think it is the case that it is not the minister's policy but the policy of the department or indeed the external third-party managing the advertising, but I will need to clarify that and bring the member back an answer.
