(1b) Government Department and Agency expenditure on advertising placement for 2005-2006 was $24.3million. (2) Including provision for media rate increases, it is anticipated that total Government Department/Agency, 'controllable expenditure', through the Master Media Contracts in 2006-2007 will approach $29.0 million. It's worth noting that in the calendar year 2000, the Court Coalition Government spent $27.1 million on Government advertising. In today's money, allowing for a conservative 3.5% annual increase in media costs, that would equate to $32.2 million, or, 11% more than the projected outcome for the current financial year.
