Campaign donations

Local government election candidates must provide a record of whether they did or didn’t receive any donations, gifts or in-kind support for their election campaign. Returns must be submitted even if the candidate wasn't elected or didn't receive donations. It is a legislative requirement that Council publishes a report of candidates' donations on the website.

Returns must include:

  • all monetary donations equal to or over the value of $500
  • all donations of in-kind support equal to or over the value of $500
  • all donations of services equal to or over the value of $500
  • all donations from the same person or body, if the combined value of the donations you received from that person or body is equal to or over the value of $500.
