Concern #494 | Donations compliance checks (PPERA eligibility + thresholds)
Title
Donations compliance checks (PPERA eligibility + thresholds)
0
characters
Description
Restore Britain states that donations over £500 require the donor to be on the UK electoral register (excluding Channel Islands and Isle of Man), and that donations above a stated annual threshold must be reported to the Electoral Commission (with donor name and value published). This creates a compliance-critical workflow for eligibility verification, annual aggregation, accept/refuse decisions, and record keeping. (Source: Restore Britain Join Us)

Desired Outcome
Every donation is screened, accepted/refused correctly, aggregated accurately across the year, and reported when required, supported by an auditable record.

What Could Go Wrong
Impermissible donations are accepted, reporting triggers are missed, donor comms are inconsistent, and the party faces regulatory action and reputational damage.

characters
Current Situation
Donation/membership pages already publish the rules and reserve the right not to accept donations. The operational controls and audit trail still need to be formalised as a consistent system.

Proposed Strategy
Define a donations SOP covering eligibility checks, aggregation logic, evidence required, refusal/refund handling, escalation, and reporting cadence; implement an internal donations register plus a monthly compliance review.
