Description

An important issue in many countries is to limit influence over national politics to forces within the country. Foreign interests such as governments, corporations, organisations and/or individuals may therefore be banned from making donations to political parties

Instructions

If you find information that political parties are not allowed to receive donations from any or all of the following; foreign citizens, foreign companies, foreign governments or foreign organisations, code “YES”. If donations from some but not all of the above are banned, code “YES” and give details in an external comment. Also code “YES” if it is stated that such entities are banned from giving support, contributions or donations to political parties. Also code “YES” if legislation includes an exhaustive list of allowed sources of income for political parties, and this only includes national sources (such as “citizens” or “natural and judicial persons from X-land”). By an “exhaustive list” is meant where it is stated something like “political parties are only allowed to receive income from the following sources” or (more vague) “parties may receive funding from the following sources”. If it says something like “allowed sources for political parties include...” it is not exhaustive. If you find information about allowed or banned sources for political parties and there is no mention about foreign sources, code “NO”. Note that a regulation of this issue for political parties may be found in a political party law. In some countries, this issue is regulated in the Constitution, normally in a section specifically on political parties. Rules regarding if citizens of the country in question living abroad can donate are not relevant for this question. Note that if you find information that foreign funding is banned from being used in election campaigns, but it is not explicitly stated or clear from the context that it relates specifically to political parties or candidates, code “NO” for both this and the following question. If you cannot find information, code “ND”.
