The Australian Electoral Commission has released the latest batch of donations disclosures - this time for the 2015-16 financial year.

These charts are based on donations records submitted by donors. In 2015-16 donors were required to declare any amount over $13,000, although many declared much smaller amounts.

Last financial year, more than 330 donors - these can be people, organisations such as unions, or companies - gave $27.8 million to Australian political parties, according to these records.

Notably, these figures exclude money donated via "associated entities", which raise money for affiliated political parties. Associated entities file their records separately.
