POLITDATA
The political parties can now submit reports about the sources and nature of their funding to a convenient web-based platform instead of submitting the bulky paper reports. It is also a place where the data is verified, stored, and made available to the general public. With journalists and activists having access to POLITDATA information, it will be more difficult to hide the origin of the funds or disguise illicit funding sources.
POLITDATA CHANGES THE RULES
Today, by contrast, POLITDATA automatically verifies all the information by using specific parameters in 14 state registers. Analysts can see the verification results and any abnormalities in the data in a special electronic office. There is also an option to compare the reports from different years to obtain information about new assets acquired by political parties. Once its analysis is finished, the NACP makes an electronic request to a political party that is delivered within a few minutes.
