30. What is the allocation calculation for political parties to receive public funding?
Germany
(1) The parties receive funds as partial financing for the activities generally incumbent upon them under the Basic Law. The benchmark for the distribution of state funds is the success that a party achieves among the voters in European, Bundestag and Landtag elections, the sum of its membership and mandate holder contributions as well as the amount of the donations it has raised.
3) The parties receive annually as part of the state partial financing
1. 0.83 euros for each valid vote cast for their respective list or
2. 0.83 euros for each valid vote cast for them in an constituency or constituency if a list for that party was not approved in a country, and
3. 0.45 euros for each euro that you received as a donation (paid membership or mandate contribution or legally obtained donation); only allowances of up to 3,300 euros per natural person are taken into account.
In deviation from numbers 1 and 2, the parties receive 1 euro per vote for the up to four million valid votes they each achieved. The amounts mentioned in sentence 1 numbers 1 and 2 and in sentence 2 will increase from 2017 in accordance with paragraph 2 sentences 2 to 5..
