Ms Liz Carolan:

I will jump in on those two points. If I had to choose just one provision, I think it would be having full transparency of all advertising, ideally, but perhaps with the exception of commercially sensitive advertising. That would enable us to do some of that forensic work and actually assess and understand what is going on in terms of advertising.

On the issue of disinformation campaigns, I do not think the electoral commission should have responsibility for disinformation campaigns that go beyond the realm of elections or potentially into things such as trust in institutions and the integrity of the broader democratic system. It having responsibility for matters relating to health would muddy the waters somewhat.
