We release quarterly reports on donations protected from disclosure.
A donation protected from disclosure lets a New Zealand person donate more than $1,500 to a party anonymously. The donor sends the money to us and we group it together with other donations protected from disclosure. We send the money to the party at regular intervals without identifying them or any details of the donation.
Making a donation protected from disclosure
Protected donations we've received
For each quarter, this table shows:
the total amount we got in donations protected from disclosure
the total amount we paid out to parties
how much we returned to donors because the donation did not meet legal requirements
how much we paid into a Crown bank account because the donation did not meet legal requirements and we could not return it to the donor.
