New rules for political party subsidies

-

Political parties can obtain state subsidies for political work in between elections. Today, any party that obtains a minimum of 1000 votes in the parliamentary elections receives state subsidies. From next year, you need at least 1.83% of the votes (approximately 64,000 votes) to receive state subsidies. 

  • To enter Parliament, you need 2% of the votes.
  • The rules will also change for the local and regional elections, regarding local and regional subsidies for political parties. 
  • Sikandar Siddique’s party (Frie Grønne – Free Greens) and KD (Christian Democrats) will lose their state subsidies next year. To give you an idea, Sikandar receives 1.1 million DKK per year in state subsidies.
