Comment

In terms of campaign finance expenditure, candidates and parties in receipt of funds for singlemember constituency races (HUF 1 million) have 15 days from the announcement of results to submit detailed financial reports to the ST. The ST acknowledges that it has limited powers to establish the veracity of these reports.80 There are no reporting requirements for the national list funding, though candidates and parties have 60 days to publish statements on the amount, source and use of all campaign funds. These statements, however, contain little detail.
