Staff Involvement in Campaigns
Civic Administration
Civic staff cannot engage in political work or help candidates or political parties, and legal action will be taken against those who do.
Civic Activist
Most civic staff have jobs through political influence and find it difficult to refuse participation in campaigns. The PMC should start monitoring within the civic office to prevent data sharing with political parties.
