Political funding Bill drafted at central, state levels for more transparency, says Wan Junaidi


LUNDU: The gist of the Political Funding Bill needs to be drafted at the central and state levels so that the channelling of funds for general and state elections will be more transparent, says Datuk Seri Dr Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar.

The Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Parliament and Law) said the National Centre for Governance, Integrity and Anti-Corruption (GIACC) had been instructed to include the existence of an administration that regulates political donations in every state as one of the scope and policy parameters outlined in the Bill.
