A cross-party committee of MPs proposed a compromise in an effort to resolve the stand-off over the reform of the rules on political donations. It stated that political parties should voluntarily agree a limit to donations from individuals, companies or trade unions, set lower spending limits for elections, increase the transparency of party finances, and vote to increase taxpayers support. The idea behind putting a ceiling on donations is to reduce the partys dependency on gifts from big organizations or wealthy individuals. There is agreement over the need for greater transparency and action that will prevent further loss of public confidence in the political establishment, because of the appearance of money buying power and influence.
