The section we're dealing with, proposed section 349.3, isn't so much about the spending, the collusion to avoid spending limits, although that may be the motivation for the sharing. It talks about no third party, no registered party, acting in collusion in order to influence the third party in what it does, under the current one. The amendment then would expand that to influence the registered party, as you say, making it a two-way street.
In terms of the question you asked, I think that with collusion under the current act, there are already provisions talking about non-monetary contributions under the current act and avoiding the spending limit under the current act. I think those would be relevant to that.
This is more directed at a specific thing, influencing how the third party acts.
