51. Is information in reports from political parties and/or candidates to be made public?

While every candidate is legally compelled to submit financial accounts within 31 days after elections, such accounts are not made public and are destroyed after six months. This means invaluable historical records of past electoral finance were destroyed. Those reports are obtainable at a cost of RM 10 per file opened and RM 2 per page for photocopying.

Annual audited account of political parties are not disclosed to the public.
