The Northern Territory Electoral Commission (NTEC) found that the Country Liberal Party (CLP) failed to report almost $90 000 in electoral donations by the required deadline.

The review said the CLP's accountant excluded receipts under $1500, while the law requires the total of all receipts to be reported.

CLP president Jamie DeBrenni said the party responded to the electoral commission soon after the report’s publication to fulfill the requirements to a satisfactory standard.
