Political donations are legal. They're also trackable. Here's every dollar we can match from a contractor to a party.

- $8.7M+ in disclosed contractor donations [AEC]
- $6.6M+ verified flowing from contractors to the ALP [AEC]

Context
Every federal political donation above a threshold is disclosed annually to the Australian Electoral Commission. We take that list and match it against our contractor database. Where a company appears on both lists — and we can verify the match to a high confidence — we count it as a contractor donation.
The table shows every contractor donor, the total they've given, the split between parties, and a "hedging ratio" that reveals whether they back one side or both. Click any row to see the specific projects that contractor is delivering and the specific years they donated.
Nothing on this page is an allegation. Donations are legal. Contracts are awarded through processes. What we're doing is showing the overlap, financial year by financial year, and letting you read it.
Takeaway
If a company wins tens of millions in government contracts while donating hundreds of thousands to the party in power, that is not illegal. It is also not invisible.
