Scottish Government Engagement: Your views – Strengthening Scottish Charity Law
COVID-19 has highlighted the importance of a strong charity sector in Scotland, and good governance has been crucial in steering charities through these challenging times. The legal environment within which Scotland’s 25,000 charities operate is critical to this, which is why the Scottish Government’s Programme for Government for 20-21 included a commitment to re‑start its engagement on changes to charity law.
As part of its engagement with the charity sector the Scottish Government invites you to help develop and refine the proposals previously consulted on in 2019. These online events will provide those attending with an opportunity to help the Scottish Government formulate a position on the way forward with charity law in Scotland.
Scottish Government want to hear further views on the proposals for:
A. enhancing transparency and accountability in Scottish charities and
B. increased regulatory powers for OSCR.
This consultation will form a joint response to Scottish Government and will build on the previous consultation responses and will assist the Scottish Government in publishing its recommendations for next steps by the end of this parliament.
This event will restart engagement with the charity sector to develop and refine the proposals consulted on in 2019 for changes to charity law.
This will provide stakeholders with an opportunity to help Scottish Government formulate a position on the way forward with charity law.
