Third Sector Stategy Disscussion Paper

The Department for Communities and local government have published a Third Sector Strategy for Communities and Local Government Discussion Paper (June 2007) which sets out their proposals for improving their engagement with the third sector. It takes account of the joint Office of the Third Sector and HM Treasury review; the Local Community Sector Taskforce, which was established by Government to consider the implications of the end of the Single Regeneration Budget and decline in European funding of the sector. Over the next three months they want to hear from the third sector, staff and other stakeholders on the direction on travel they propose. Details of howto respond are contained at the end of the document. http://www.communities.gov.uk/pub/152/ThirdSectorStrategy_id1511152.pdf
