Dear Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet,

How much public money has been spent promoting this tweet:

How many "interactions" occurred, broken down by type of interaction?

With some particularity, how was this tweet authorised? Did the entire Flag Consideration Panel approve it, or did one or more members, or was the approval process delegated? Please provide details.

Yours faithfully,
