Question

To ask the Right hon. Member for Kenilworth and Southam, representing the Speaker's Committee on the Electoral Commission, what advice and guidance has the Electoral Commission given on how and when a personal gift to a regulated donee becomes a declarable political donation.

A donation or loan to a regulated donee is regulated – and therefore declarable – if it is made in connection with the donee’s political activities in their capacity as a regulated donee. The Commission outlines examples of political activities in its guidance for regulated donees.
