Article 43 Control of donations to individual candidatesI1
England and Wales
In the case of an individual candidate at a Senedd election, any money or other property provided, whether as a gift or loan—
by any person other than the candidate or the candidate’s election agent, and
for the purpose of meeting election expenses incurred by or on behalf of the candidate,
must be provided to the candidate or the candidate’s election agent.
Paragraph (1) does not apply to any money or other property so provided for the purpose of meeting any expenses which may be lawfully paid by a person other than the candidate or the candidate’s election agent.
A person who provides any money or other property in contravention of paragraph (1) is guilty of an illegal practice.
Schedule 6 makes further provision about donations to individual candidates at a Senedd election.
In this article, “property” includes any description of property, and references to the provision of property include the supply of goods.
