Submitted by Steve on 14:32, 6th Oct, 2016 | 0

The Policy and Resources Committee decision not to introduce Gift Aid and Payroll Giving in the 2017 budget, following the review promised at the end of 2015 has been met with dismay by the Association of Guernsey Charities, which has been calling for change since April 2013.

Peter Rose, AGC Chairman, has indicated “this is clearly a slap in the face for local charities, and undoubtedly conflicts with the terms of the Social Compact between the States of Guernsey and the Charity sector, signed only two years ago.”
