Donations to Political Parties


Nick Xenophon

Nick Xenophon SA, Independent

12:37 pm

I, and also on behalf of Senator Rhiannon and Senator Conroy, move:

That the Senate—

(a) notes that:

  (i) at least 114 countries have banned foreign political donations, and

  (ii) Australia is not one of the at least 114 countries that ban foreign political donations; and

(b) calls on the Government to support legislative changes to make overseas political donations illegal.

Question agreed to.
