Clear monitoring and transparency of campaign funding and spending can provide greater public accountability with the introduction of campaign finance accounting mechanisms. Consideration to placing a ceiling on spending may also serve to reduce the monetisation of politics. Maximum transparency would be guaranteed by requiring political parties to submit accounts of their donations and spending on a regular basis to a relevant authority for the duration of the campaign period.
