What is the total amount, if any, spent by agencies, departments, Crown entities, companies, or other organisations for which the Minister is responsible on advertising, communications, or promotional activity relating to Budget 2026, broken down by agency and item, as at 5 June 2026?

Answer

I am advised that there has not been any direct spend on advertising, communications or promotional activity relating to Budget 2026 by Corrections as at 5 June 2026. I am further advised that Corrections employs staff who, as part of their day-to-day work, have responded to queries relating to Budget 2026 or prepared supporting material on Budget 2026. Spend on salaries for these staff members is covered by Corrections’ business-as-usual funding.
