the reference
Many, but by no means all, committee inquiries
are publicised in appropriate media, including through the Internet and paid
advertisements in the press. Depending on the nature of the inquiry, the most appropriate
publications are chosen in order to reach those people and organisations most
likely to make submissions. These publications may include national, regional
or specialised newspapers. Inquiries are also commonly notified to the media by
way of press releases. Some limited use has been made of radio advertisements,
but to date television advertisements and freephone technology have been seldom
used because of the cost.
