Comment
The election expenses limit for each registered party is calculated as follows:
- For electoral districts where the party has endorsed a candidate, $0.735 is multiplied by the number of names appearing on the preliminary or revised electoral lists for each electoral district.
- The limit is then adjusted for inflation at the rate in effect on the day the election is called.
