Zali Steggall asks the Prime Minister if he will provide voter protections in political advertising

17 October 2023

 

Consumers are protected from commercial conduct and advertising that is misleading and deceptive.

This includes promotions or advertisements that:

  • Contain false or inaccurate information, and
  • Statements that fail to disclose important information.

But nothing protects voters from misleading and deceptive political advertising.

Will you support my bill, or introduce legislation without delay, to provide voter protections in political advertising, consistent with existing consumer protections?
