The limits for political parties are calculated according to a formula based on the number of names on the preliminary or revised lists of electors for each electoral district. For a party, the electoral districts are those in which the party has endorsed confirmed candidates. The amount is adjusted for inflation and the base figure with which the names are to be multiplied is $0.735.
