Abstract

Three possible methods of regulating party finance in Australia, namely public funding, the disclosure of party expenditure and campaign expenditure limits are analysed, with reference to the funding and expenditure patterns of Australian political parties and a comparative analysis of the UK regulatory framework. It is concluded that public funding of political parties inflates campaign expenditure and results in political inequality, and enforcement of expenditure limits and disclosure perform an anti-corruption function and promote political equality.
