All members of the NSW Parliament have obligations under the Election Funding and Disclosures Act 1981 (the Act).
The Funding and Disclosure Guide for Elected Members and Official Agents provides members of Parliament and their official agents with information about their obligations under the Act and practical information about how to complete and lodge a disclosure form.
All members of Parliament (or their official agents) are required to lodge a Disclosure of Political Donations and Electoral Expenditure for a Member of Parliament every six months for the disclosure periods ending 30 June and 31 December. The disclosures are due to be lodged with the Election Funding Authority by 25 August and 25 February each year respectively.
You still must lodge a ‘nil’ disclosure if you have received no political donations or incurred no electoral expenditure.
