To avoid the #ApprenticeshipLevy simply becoming another tax that many charities cannot make full use of, we have also called on the Government to extend the Levy to training and/or volunteer costs /12
In a similar vein we also call on the Government to review the appropriateness of #InsurancePremiumTax on charitable activities and to commit to no further increases /13
Lastly the submission calls on the Government to extend the funding for the #ListedPlacesofWorshipGrantScheme in advance of considering the reinstatement of a suitable charity listed buildings tax relief now that EU VAT rules are no longer an obstacle to this #charityvat /14

👍@MartynDaySNP for asking @DCMS to support #GiftAidRelief. @JWhittingdale confirmed support for #GiftAid but noted the proposals would break the link to tax paid & impact <20% of charities - the charity sector welcomes this dialogue & is happy to address these concerns 1/
