The government will not be supporting this motion as it duplicates the work already underway by the Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters. Following the 2016 election, the Special Minister of State referred a range of issues to the Joint Standing Committee on Electoral Matters. The inquiry's wide-ranging terms of reference include donations to political parties and other political entities. The government looks forward to receiving the JSCEM's report on these matters.
