1st Dec 2021, 11:33 AM – Representatives Electoral Legislation Amendment (Annual Disclosure Equality) Bill 2021 - Consideration in Detail - Receipt of donations
Summary
EditThe majority voted in favour of disagreeing with amendments introduced by Indi MP Helen Haines (Independent), which means they failed. The amendment concerned receipt of donations and the disclosure of receipt of donations.
What does the bill do?
According to the bill homepage, the bill was introduced to:
- extend the application of the foreign donations framework to current sitting members of the House of Representatives and Senators;
- require members of the House of Representatives and Senators who receive gifts for the purpose of incurring electoral expenditure or creating or communicating electoral matter to lodge an annual return with the Australian Electoral Commission; and
- extend the period for which a person is taken to be a candidate by an additional six months for the purpose of the disclosure period for candidate and Senate group returns and for restrictions on receiving foreign donations.
