WHAT the Minister said!
Voluntary sector organisations are crucial to the Coalitions planned reforms and Chris stressed this message to the voluntary sector!!
He went on to add that the Coalition Government “….will seek to protect the voluntary sector as it shapes the work programme”
Lets find out what this means……
He also announced that they will be holding forums with the voluntary sector over the next few weeks.
In bids he wants to see the voluntary sector as an integral part of the supply chain
“from the point of view of FND I look upon it as building out from there not replacing and tearing up what’s already there”
Question 8 is very interesting!!
“we’ve never believed that local authorities could themselves be private contractors because effectively it’s the public sector passing risk to another part of the public sector”
