Senator CONROY (Victoria—Leader of the Government in the Senate, Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy and Minister Assisting the Prime Minister on Digital Productivity) (14:05): Hypocrisy has reared its head today. In 2007, the Howard government spent a whopping $254 million on advertising with no independent oversight. In 2012, the government spent less than half than the Howard government did in 2007 when the member for North Sydney was trying to convince Australians that Work Choices was their friend. The high-water mark for government advertising will always be the $84 million Mr Hockey spent on media placement for Work Choices alone, including $31.8 million over just three weeks in October 2005. (Time expired) Honourable senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! That is disorderly, and you know that. There is a discussion taking place in front of me which should not take place. When there is silence we will proceed. Senator Fifield is entitled to be heard in silence.
