This is the last one.
This is an act to amend the Auditor General Act regarding government advertising. It would amend the Auditor General Act to provide for the appointment of an advertising commissioner—Ontario has a similar program—to assist the Auditor General in performing duties related to the use of public funds for any advertisement that a department proposes to post, publish, display, or broadcast, to ensure that the advertisement meets the requirements of the act, it establishes a process by which proposed messages are reviewed by the commissioner to determine whether they meet the requirements of the act and provides for reporting on the discharge of the duties under that act.
This bill does not concern questions that are outside of federal jurisdiction, including amendments to the Auditor General Act. This bill does not clearly violate the Constitution Acts, including the Canadian charter. It does not concern questions that are substantially the same as ones already voted on by the House in the current session of Parliament or preceding it in the order of precedence, and this bill does not concern questions that are currently on the Order Paper or Notice Paper as items of government business.
