Evidence

The requested political-parties page returned INEC's not-found/search fallback. That fallback lists annual finance, campaign income and expenditure forms, a 2018 annual-audit notice, a 2015 audit invitation, and a 2019 compliance-verification document. The wp1 legacy host failed DNS resolution. These are discovery leads, not retrieved audited accounts.

Limitations

A reporting form is not a completed filing. A notice or audit invitation does not establish that accounts were published or that a particular party complied.

Ingestion plan

Recover current document URLs from the official library, check terms and robots, then preserve original files with SHA-256, extract tables with page references and manually validate amounts. Retry alternate domains and archives before requesting unavailable filings. Daily discovery during election periods; historical backfill separately. Rate limits and pagination remain unconfirmed.

Expected records, as stated: Not measured — source discovery only; no underlying records ingested.

Terms of use

Reuse licence, robots policy and automated-access permissions have not yet been established. Link to the publisher; do not redistribute or automate collection until reviewed.
