Representation of the People BillContribution
Without this power, those seeking to circumvent the new rules could simply redirect activity through areas where comparable safeguards do not apply.

The amendments have a time-limited mechanism, ensuring that they are introduced, and where possible consistently, across categories of political activity and to recipients of political funding.
