Talk isn't cheap

from Follow The Money Hosted by The Australia Institute

Each year the federal government spends upwards of a billion dollars of public money on external consultancies, but most of the work is kept secret from the public. It's a big issue for government transparency as huge questions remain over the Morrison government on questions of accountability and integrity. Recorded live on 26 October 2021, things may have changed since recording.
