302CAA  Gifts to Senate groups
 (1) This section applies if a gift is made by or on behalf of a donor, to either of the following:
 (a) a group;
 (b) an agent acting on behalf of a group.
 (2) For the purposes of this Part:
 (a) if the group is a single‑party endorsed group—the party that endorsed the candidates in the group is taken to have received the gift; and
 (b) if the group is a jointly endorsed group or none of the group's members is a candidate endorsed by a registered political party—each member of the group is taken to have received an equal share of the gift (rounded to the nearest dollar); and
 (c) in any case—the group is taken not to have received the gift.
Note: Candidates may be subject to expedited disclosure requirements in relation to their share of the gift (see section 303A). Gifts received by endorsed candidates of a registered political party may be aggregated in certain circumstances for the purpose of determining whether a gift exceeds the relevant gift cap (see section 302BA).
