Lobbying Act

The Lobbying Act is a law designed to regulate how individuals and organizations influence government decision-making. It requires lobbyists—those who seek to persuade politicians and civil servants about specific issues—to register and disclose their activities. This transparency aims to ensure that the public can see who is trying to affect public policy and with what interests. By doing so, the Act helps promote accountability and reduce the potential for corruption, ensuring that the voices of various stakeholders are recognized in the political process.
