Dear List members
 
Just to let you know that the MA will be making a short response to this consultation document highlighting the positive results of the Tourism South East survey on the impact of the recent changes to Gift Aid (see http://www.museumsassociation.org/14115&search=2.3 for a news story about the MA's involvement in the Attractions Gift Aid Liaison Group and to download a copy of the report). If your museum has a particular experience of using the new Gift Aid system that you would like us to consider in our response to this consultation then please do e-mail me with details at [log in to unmask] However treasury and MLA want to encourage individual organisations that are using gift aid to respond directly to the consultation (the questions are directed at organisations not sector bodies like us) so please do consider sharing your experience in this way.
 
Kind regards

Subject: Consultation on Gift Aid

Dear Colleagues

I wondered whether colleagues had seen notification of this consultation. 

Gift Aid: Treasury consultation to 30th September

The Treasury and Office of the Third Sector launched a consultation on 19th June on measures to increase the take-up of the Gift Aid tax relief. Take up of Gift Aid currently stands at around a third of donations, delivering support for charities worth £828m per year. A consultation pack is available from http://www.hm-treasury.gov.uk/documents/public_spending_reporting/charity_third_sector_finance/psr_charity_thirdsector_giftaid.cfm

Hard copies are available from the consultation team if you cannot access the electronic versions. You can also use the online survey to register your interest in attending a national or regional event. Alternatively, email [log in to unmask] with your organisation name and contact details.
