The Green Party in New Zealand has announced a new political reform package aimed at increasing transparency and reducing the influence of money in politics. The core proposals include capping political donations at $30,000, completely banning corporate donations, and establishing a public register for lobbyists.

Describing the initiative as long overdue with the phrase "it's past time to act," the party's policy targets systemic changes in how political campaigns are funded and how lobbying is conducted within the country.
