The proposed amendment aims to regulate the raising and use of funds by political parties and candidates during election campaigns. If passed, the amendment would introduce a structured framework for monitoring and reporting campaign finances by political parties and candidates. The regime is expected to outline the roles of relevant state institutions in supervising compliance and enforcing the new regulations. The private member’s bill is expected to be presented to Parliament of Ghana for consideration, where lawmakers will debate its provisions before deciding whether to approve the proposed changes to the existing law.
