How we check promises
Latest review
The latest review added MIC’s 45 initiatives, revised four government ratings and checked PSM’s advocacy across all 31 national promises.
Open a promise to see when we reviewed it. Where known, each source shows its publication date or reporting period.
What each status means
Government progress
- Completed
- The promised action happened or the party’s full target was met.
- Ongoing
- A dated source shows concrete work has started and is still under way on the specific promise.
- Planned
- A source documents a specific proposal, budget or other preparation. Delivery has yet to be confirmed.
- Not started
- An official source confirms work has yet to start and gives no concrete plan.
- Stalled
- Work or a formal attempt was paused or blocked. A path to resume remains open.
- Partly delivered
- A material part was delivered. The final scope or the result at the promised deadline fell short.
- Not completed
- The promise was cancelled, reversed, or missed its own deadline without material delivery.
- Review pending
- The promise can be checked. The available evidence leaves its stage unclear.
- Broad goal
- The campaign gives a general aim with no specific action or target to check.
- Wording unverified
- Available campaign material is incomplete. The full promise still needs verification.
What other parties pushed for
- Advocacy documented
- A party or its representatives publicly pushed for the promise or part of it after the election.
- Advocacy review pending
- We need clearer evidence of what the party did to push for the promise.
How we count promises
We use the action or target from the campaign wording. Publishing a plan counts as delivery when publishing it was the promise. For a promise with several parts, the finding identifies which parts have evidence.
The government progress bar includes entries with a specific action or target in the verified manifesto wording. The full list also includes broad goals and entries with unverified wording.
Totals count manifesto entries. One entry can contain several actions, and the same promise can appear more than once. The counts reflect how the manifestos were written.
Nationwide manifestos appear under every region. See Parties for regional editions and for documents we could only verify in part.
The main comparison covers selected GE15 parties. The Parties page also lists other editions and campaign material. These entries are browsable separately.
Evidence can include a programme that was already running at the election when the manifesto promised to continue it.
Which parties we track
Parties are grouped by how they ran in 2022. For parties in the federal government bloc, we check what was delivered under the administration. For parties outside it, we look for public action by the party or its representatives.
The October 2026 agreements let BERSATU and other signatory MPs support the government on specified votes while keeping their opposition oversight role.
