ECIElection Campaign-Finance Index

No section in the FTS-surfaced candidates satisfies this criterion. Best signal: Article 116 of the Belgian Electoral Code addresses candidate nomination procedures, including signature requirements for candidate lists, identity documentation, and ballot-symbol registration. It contains no provisions regarding campaign contributions, contribution limits, or any framework governing financial support to political campaigns. The section is entirely procedural regarding candidate presentation and does not address the contribution-limit criterion at all.

No section in the FTS-surfaced candidates satisfies this criterion. Best signal: Article 130 of the Belgian Electoral Code addresses state and municipal funding of election administration costs (ballots, polling-station staffing, voter transportation, insurance). It contains no statutory codification of independent-expenditure rules, which concern third-party spending separate from candidate committees. The section is purely about government expense allocation, not campaign-finance disclosure, contribution limits, or independent-expenditure procedures.

No matching sections in corpus.

No section in the FTS-surfaced candidates satisfies this criterion. Best signal: Article 130 of the Belgian Electoral Code concerns state and local expenditures for election administration (ballot paper, polling-station staffing, voter transport, insurance), not campaign contributions or disclosure thresholds. The section contains no definition of contribution-disclosure thresholds, reporting requirements, or the monetary amounts triggering disclosure obligations.

No section in the FTS-surfaced candidates satisfies this criterion. Best signal: This section concerns senatorial seat allocation procedures based on linguistic groups and electoral quotients. It contains no provisions whatsoever regarding campaign finance disclosure, filing schedules, or deadlines. The criterion DISC.2 requires enumeration of filing deadlines for campaign finance reports; this section addresses only parliamentary apportionment mechanics and contains no campaign-finance procedural elements.

No section in the FTS-surfaced candidates satisfies this criterion. Best signal: Article 116 of Belgium's Code électoral governs candidate nomination procedures, including signature requirements, candidate information fields, and party-list designation. It does not address campaign finance, contributor disclosure, or financial contributions. The section contains no provisions requiring disclosure of contributor names, addresses, occupations, or employers.

The section requires deposit of campaign-finance reports at a courthouse for 15 days, permitting public inspection by registered voters upon presentation of their voting summons. However, this establishes physical, in-person access at a courthouse rather than online accessibility. The statute creates a defined timeline (75 days post-election, 15-day inspection window) and legal requirement for public access, but does not mandate online publication or digital accessibility within a defined timeframe. The procedural clarity exists for physical filing and courthouse inspection, but the criterion specifically requires online access, which is absent from this text.

Article 184 specifies a statutory penalty range (26–200 francs) for multiple campaign-finance violations: offering money or valuables to voters under pretense of travel reimbursement, providing food or drink to voters, and voters accepting such offers. The statute codifies both the prohibited conduct and the sanction amount (civil fine/amende), meeting the core requirement of ENF.1. While the text does not explicitly classify this as 'criminal' grade in modern terminology, the 'amende' (fine) structure is statutorily defined with enumerated boundaries, satisfying the codification standard.

No section in the FTS-surfaced candidates satisfies this criterion. Best signal: Article 116 governs candidate-nomination procedures (submission signatures, candidate identity fields, list symbols), not campaign-finance enforcement. The section contains no provisions regarding appointment of enforcement bodies, multi-branch processes, or protection from political control. ENF.2 requires statutory grounding of enforcement-body independence, which this nomination article does not address.

No section in the FTS-surfaced candidates satisfies this criterion. Best signal: Article 116 regulates candidate-presentation procedures (signatures, identity information, ballot symbols) but contains no provisions establishing a private right of action for campaign-finance violations. The section addresses administrative filing requirements and verification by electoral officials, not enforcement mechanisms or citizen/party suits.
