澳大利亚各政党收到超过14 000万美元的捐款,大量捐款未披露。 Australian political parties received over $140M in donations, with significant amounts undisclosed.
澳大利亚各政党在2023/24年收到超过1.4亿美元的捐款,其中劳动党收到6 750万美元,自由党收到6 400万美元。 Australian political parties received over $140 million in donations in 2023/24, with the Labor Party receiving $67.5 million and the Liberal Party getting $64 million. 由于披露法薄弱,这些捐款几乎有一半,其中约3 500万美元用于联盟,2 550万美元用于劳工,未披露。 Almost half of these donations, about $35 million for the coalition and $25.5 million for Labor, were undisclosed due to weak disclosure laws. 主要捐助者包括Anthony Pratt的Pratt控股公司和Harry Triguboff的Meriton财产公司,前者向劳工局提供了100万美元,后者向自由党捐赠了59万美元。 Major donors included Anthony Pratt's Pratt Holdings, which gave $1 million to Labor, and Harry Triguboff's Meriton Properties, which donated $590,000 to the Liberals. 选举法的拟议修改旨在将披露门槛降低到1 000美元,并设定支出限制,但批评者认为,这些修改仍然允许大量未披露的捐款,有利于主要政党而不是独立政党。 Proposed changes to electoral laws aim to lower the disclosure threshold to $1,000 and set spending limits, but critics argue these changes still allow significant undisclosed donations and favor major parties over independents.
