The Small Charitable Donations Bill should be index-linked | Third Sector blog | Third Sector blogs

The Small Charitable Donations Bill should be index-linked | Third Sector blog | Third Sector blogs: he GASDS, and the Small Charitable Donations Bill that will bring it into existence, have been criticised because of the bureaucracy involved, particularly the need for a good Gift Aid record before you can take part, and the need to collect at least �1 in Gift Aid for every �2 raised under GASDS.

But the scheme actually has another, perhaps more serious flaw: it’s not index-linked.

This issue is the kind of detail that doesn’t sound exciting, but has the potential to mess up the whole thing.
