Small Charitable Donations Bill moves to House of Lords

Small Charitable Donations Bill moves to House of Lords: Amendments to the Small Charitable Donations Bill that will make the gift aid small donations scheme more accessible to smaller and newer charitable and community organisations have been passed by the House of Commons as the Bill heads to the House of Lords.

Last week umbrella bodies celebrated some success in campaigning to reduce the bureaucratic burden of the Bill as the Chancellor introduced amendments to make the GASDS more accessible. At the third reading of the House of Commons yesterday these amendments were passed.
