My question is again to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to his promise prior to the last election to ban publicly funded political advertising in the three months before an election unless specifically agreed by the leaders of the government and the opposition. I quote:

That is an absolute undertaking from us. I believe this is a sick cancer within our system. It’s a cancer on democracy.

Why has the Prime Minister walked away from yet another promise?
