Referral of alleged breach of the Electoral Act 1993

Nov 18, 2011 | News

On 18 November 2011, the Electoral Commission referred Jolyon White to the Police for sticker advertisements attached to National Party billboards.

It is the Electoral Commission’s view that the publication of each of these advertisements constitutes a breach of sections 204F of the Electoral Act 1993 because they are election advertisements that do not contain a valid promoter statement.

 
As these matters are now with the Police, the Electoral Commission will not be commenting further.
