28. (2) 'Subject to subsection (6), no person or organization shall, in any one year, contribute to a political party an amount, whether in cash or in kind exceeding five percent of the total expenditure of the political party'. The total expenditure shall be in relation to the audited accounts of the political party of the previous year. (Source: Political Parties Act, 2011)

Comment

Annual contribution limits to a political party do not apply to donations (in cash or in-kind) made by founding member of the party as his/her contribution to the initial assets of the party within the first year of existence.
