Chapter 12 (Mode of Spending, Handbook for Candidates, 2013

The Public Election Fund Act categorically, prohibits spending out of the campaign account for any purpose that is not related to the election campaign. A Candidate must conduct all financial activity through a single campaign account. It must be borne in mind that no other deposit can be made in the campaign account except the contributions received from Political Party in the case of National Assembly. 

Comment

Based on contributions made by the political party to the candidates.
