Deputy Commissioner Scott Tilyard confirmed Tasmania Police received a letter from state opposition leader Bryan Green and said that the matters would be assessed.
The referral came a day after state director and then party treasurer Sam McQuestin requested the Australian Electoral Commission change its political Party disclosure return from eight years ago, to include personal expenses Mr Mantach charged to his part credit card, which he repaid.
The paperwork requested three sums, each in excess of $12,000, be added onto the document.
