National Assembly endorses new donation threshold
Cape Argus
|May 21, 2025
THE National Assembly has adopted a report proposing increased disclosure thresholds and upper limits for donations to political parties and independent candidates.
This unanimous decision, except for dissent from the MK Party, Build One South Africa, Al Jama-ah, and the ATM, is a sequel to the public hearings undertaken by the Home Affairs Portfolio Committee after Parliament was taken to court by lobby group, My Vote Counts, when it passed the Electoral Amendment Act without setting the upper limits for donation and disclosure thresholds before the 2024 elections.
Before the amendment, the disclosure threshold was R100000 per financial year, and the upper limit for donations was R15 million per financial year to political parties.
