Voluntary and Community Sector Funding - Amendment 1

Leave out all after ‘Local Growth Fund by the’ and insert: ‘UK Government; notes that the Northern Ireland Executive has realised savings from European Structural and Investment Fund succession without reinvestment in community and voluntary services; notes the financial challenges facing all Executive Departments and therefore does not believe it would be prudent to add to these challenges by devolving the administration for these schemes to local Ministers; laments the failure of the UK Government to put in place timely and adequate replacement funding arrangements; and calls on the Minister of Finance to press the UK Government to align the aims and funding objectives of the Local Growth Fund with the Executive’s Programme for Government to provide clarity for the voluntary and community sector.’
