donors that are made for a federal purpose are subject to a cap. Gifts (other than gifts made for the purposes of a by‑election or a Senate‑only election) are subject to an annual cap for a calendar year. Gifts made for the purposes of a by‑election or a Senate‑only election are subject to a separate cap during the election period for the election. Gifts may be aggregated with other gifts made by the same donor to related persons or entities if the gifts are made in the same calendar year, or for the purposes of the same by‑election or Senate‑only election.
      In addition, gifts made for a federal purpose by the same person or entity to unendorsed candidates in the same State or Territory are also subject to a cap.
      There are obligations to disclose certain gifts made to:
             (a) candidates; and
             (b) members of the House of Representatives, Senators, registered political parties, State branches, significant third parties, associated entities, nominated entities and third parties.
      Each calendar year, registered political parties, candidates, members of the House of Representatives, Senators, significant third parties, associated entities, nominated entities and third parties are required to disclose details relating to amounts received or paid or incurred by the parties, candidates, members, Senators, persons or entities during the year.
