AB  - From July 2006 to December 2010, 11 Victorian government departments and five agencies spent over $1 billion on advertising and communications.

Government spending on advertising and communications is significant and has grown consistently since 2002. Given the political sensitivity and significance of this annual expenditure, full and fair disclosure of all advertising costs incurred is a critical accountability issue. However, currently, the level of transparency and accountability for government advertising and communications expenditure continues to be inadequate.
