The response position records the government's reply. It does not establish implementation.
Recommendation (the Committee's words)
A limit should be placed on the campaign expenditures of political parties in respect of elections to the Northern Ireland Assembly. The limit for the next elections to the Assembly should be set at £300,000. It should then be index-linked. It should not be varied in future except on the recommendation of the Election Commission.
