October 1998

Response position and delivery status are recorded separately. Acceptance does not establish implementation.

Recommendation

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.
