Regulatory framework
Commonwealth legislation establishes the regulatory framework for outdoor advertising. This legislation requires all advertising to comply with self-regulatory Codes and Guidelines such as:
- the Australian Association of National Advertisers (AANA) Code of Ethics; and
- the Alcohol Beverages Advertising Code (ABAC).
The Advertising Standards Bureau manages complaints in relation to advertising. Complaints are to be lodged through the Ad Standards website
Outdoor and billboard advertisements in relation to alcohol are covered by the Outdoor Media Advertising (OMA) Code of Ethics: Alcohol and Advertising Guidelines. They require that no advertising of alcohol products on fixed signs be located within a 150-metre sight line of a primary or secondary school. More information at the Outdoor Media Advertising website
