We know that red tape can make life difficult. These pages should help people that run third sector organisations by:
• highlighting recent and ongoing changes and initiatives that are intended to make life easier for them and
• providing links to where more detailed information can be found
The Government is committed to ensuring that third sector organisations are not subject to unnecessary or disproportionate regulation and administrative burdens.
The new pages include information about changes to charity law and regulation, including the implementation plan for the Charities Act 2006 and the Plain English guide to the Act. However, they also provide links to useful information on other websites, such as:
• the Simplification Plans all Government departments to produce that outline their achievements in reducing the burden of regulation on businesses, charities and voluntary organisations
• the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills new Employment Law Organiser, which is intended to help all employers, including third sector organisations, manage the key legal obligations they are required to fulfil
The new law and regulation pages will be regularly updated to highlight the latest developments in cutting red tape for third sector organisations to help them to keep up with changes that help them.
