Canberra Liberals failed to declare $35,000 in Adani donations


READ MORE

The figures released today show Adani Mining gave the Canberra Liberals two donations worth a total of $22,500 on September 15, 2017, with a further $12,500 donated to the party on November 13, 2017.


But the ACT commission requires all political parties to report all donations totalling $1000 or more within 30 days of the end of the financial quarter the donations were received.


The ACT commission’s records show the Canberra Liberals did not report any of the donations Adani Mining has reported to the federal commission during 2017-18, or since, and it is unclear why.


An explanation has been sought from both Canberra Liberals leader Alistair Coe and the party itself as to why the Adani Mining donations were not reported to the ACT commission.


While the national commission’s records are less complete than the ACT commission’s given the higher threshold for disclosure, they show the Liberals reported $383,814 in donations in 2017-18, compared with ACT Labor’s $1,675,731.
