Qld govt defends its $1m TV ad campaign

THE Queensland government has defended spending $1 million on a television advertisement, saying it has slashed its overall spending on ads.

The one-minute advertisement, to be screened from Sunday night, urges Queenslanders to get involved in the government's 30-year plan for the state.

All 89 Queensland MPs are expected at a summit in Mackay, in central Queensland, on Friday to discuss their long-term vision for the state.

Queensland Council of Unions president John Battams said the government was promoting its plan to privatise state assets, and Opposition Leader Annastacia Palaszczuk said the money could have been put to better use.

But the government says it has cut the advertising budget by 44 per cent since it came to power in 2012 and saved $20 million.

A spokesman said the Bligh government had spent $45.3 million between July and December in 2011, compared to the Newman government's spend of $25.54 million in the same period in 2012.

"Regardless, the Queensland Plan is not a party political exercise and this campaign is not political advertising," the spokesman said in a statement to AAP.

"The Queensland Plan is an opportunity for Queenslanders to create a vision for their state for the next 30 years and it has bipartisan support."
