One Nation asks donors to sign NDAs at $3,000 Sydney fundraiser
One Nation requires donors at a high-ticket Sydney fundraiser to sign non-disclosure agreements. These stop them from sharing what is discussed.
One Nation is trying to silence donors at an exclusive $3,000-per-ticket fundraiser in Sydney. Donors must sign non-disclosure agreements before attending.
The agreements would prevent people from sharing details about talks with the party's senior leaders. The move has raised questions about openness in political fundraising.
Some watchers say it sets a worrying precedent. The party is making gains in Victoria ahead of that state's election.
It appeals to some Labor voters in working-class western suburbs who feel left behind. One Nation leader Pauline Hanson continues to shape the party's direction and fundraising strategy.

Why it mattersDonors typically expect fundraisers to be private. But non-disclosure agreements that stop public sharing of donor talks are unusual for a big political party.
AustraliaIf the practice spreads, it could set a precedent that limits the public's ability to understand what donors discuss with Australian political parties.
