Obtaining receipts while assisting any individual or political parties is necessary says Fijian Elections Office Supervisor Mohammed Saneem.

Saneem says under the legal framework for political parties, it is vital for them to comply with relevant provisions regarding funding.

“I would also like to mention that on page 12 Section 3.2] of the Multinational Observer Group report, the MOG found that the political funding reporting requirements in Fiji were consistent with international practice and therefore I urge all parties, persons and individuals to comply with the relevant provisions regarding Political Funding and ensure that necessary declarations and disclosures are made as per the requirements of the law.”
