Labours election advertisements do not count as election campaign expenses


Although Labour broke the law with its election leaflets by not putting proper authorisation on it, even if it had done so, the Electoral Finance Act allows parties to use taxpayer dollars to produce booklets like the one Labour produced and as long as it puts a party authorisation on it, it can be an election advertisement funded by the taxpayer, but doesn't count towards election campaign expenses.
