Parties must also report the frequency of salary payments to MPs, the drafter said.
If they don’t or if they report false information, the party’s leaders would face legal consequences, although the CDC has not yet decided on the penalties, he added.
Chartchai said that it was common for parties to pay salaries to MPs.
He said that the CDC included the new stipulations in the organic law on political parties because it wanted to improve transparency.
However, he stressed this did not mean parties would be required to pay salaries of MPs.
