The National Audit Office is required to maintain a register of election funding disclosures in which information related to disclosure, including advance
disclosure and ex post disclosure, is stored. If the candidate has submitted assurance as referred to in Subsection 6(5), the information mentioned in items 1, 2, and 5 of Subsection 1 of said section and notice that the assurance has been submitted shall be entered in the register. Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection 16(3) of the Act on the Openness of Government Activities (621/1999 621/1999 Laki viranomaisten toiminnan julkisuudesta), every individual will have the right to obtain copies of the register entries and information via public data networks.
Information related to parliamentary and municipal elections is to remain available in a public data network for a period of five years, information related to European Parliament elections for six years, and information related to a Presidential election for seven years from the date of confirmation of the election results. Advance disclosures filed by parties other than the disclosers specified in Section 5 are to remain available in a public data network for 30 days from the date of confirmation of the election results.
Storage of the disclosures, including advance disclosure and ex post disclosure, and the information stored in the election funding register, along with access to the register, are governed by the provisions of the Archives Act (831/1994 Arkistolaki) and the Act on the Openness of Government Activities (621/1999 Laki viranomaisten toiminnan julkisuudesta).
