The advice I have is that some of the considerations around the promotion of a yes campaign and a no campaign reflect, in part, the debate that occurs in the parliament and the nature of support indicated in the parliament itself around the proposition. Looking at the progress of this matter as it stands, I think that there is fairly clear support for a general civics education type campaign, where the government in that context promotes the benefits of the change to the Constitution and why we recommend it, but how the yes and the no propositions will be supported will in part be determined by representing the nature of the debate that occurs here.
