The suspended Green MP Darleen Tana has been referred to the police over an election advertisement published in May 2023, alongside the publishers of Verve Magazine.
She was suspended by her party leadership amid accusations against her husband's business, and about her possible involvement - currently the subject of an investigation.
The claims centre around the treatment of migrant workers.
In a separate matter, Tana has now been referred to the police over an alleged failure to include a promoter statement in an election advert.
Under electoral laws, an election ad must contain a promoter statement.
Green Party co-leader Chlöe Swarbrick said in a statement: "The Green Party alerted the Electoral Commission to this as soon as the party was made aware. Now that this has been referred to the police it would be inappropriate to comment further".
