    (a) This part interprets 2 U.S.C. 437 and 26 U.S.C. 9008. Under 26 
U.S.C. 9008(b), the national committees of both major and minor parties 
are entitled to public funds to defray expenses incurred with respect to 
a Presidential Nominating convention. Under 26 U.S.C. 9008(d), 
expenditures with regard to such a convention by a national committee 
receiving public funds are limited to $4,000,000, as adjusted by the 
Consumer Price Index. New parties are not entitled to receive any public 
funds to defray convention expenses.
    (b) Under 2 U.S.C. 437, each committee or organization which 
represents a national party in making arrangements for that party's 
presidential nominating convention is required to file disclosure 
reports. This reporting obligation extends to all such committees or 
organizations, regardless of whether or not public funds are used or 
available to defray convention expenses.
