In 2008 prior to the change in policy, GSK donated £319,000 to candidates for state-held offices. Contributions were only made where permitted by law and were not made on the basis of political party.
Contributions were made to candidates who support an environment that appropriately rewards high-risk, high-investment industries and who work to preserve free market principles and intellectual property rights. We made approximately 46 per cent of our contributions to Republican candidates and 54 per cent to Democratic candidates. All states publish information disclosing the names of contributors and the amount of contributions that are at or above an established threshold.
