52. While the campaign fund of a candidate can still be formed from his or her own contributions (and those of the respective party) as well as donations from individuals eligible to vote, the draft amendments provide that campaign funds of a political party (or party alliance) are now limited to contributions made by that party (or parties of the alliance), see Article 26 part 3. On the other hand, the amended Article 24 part 2 of the Law on Political Parties provides that a natural person can make a donation to one or more parties. It is not quite clear why contributions by natural persons to election funds of political parties should no longer be permitted.46 Bearing in mind that the funding of political parties is a form of political participation and that it is appropriate for parties to seek private financial contributions, within the prescribed limits, this amendment could be reconsidered. At the same time, it is clear that a natural person can still contribute to the political parties, rather than directly to the campaign funds.
