In a meeting between members of the sector forum on Gift Aid, Justine Greening MP and Nick Hurd MP this afternoon ACEVO chief executive Stephen Bubb called on government to stop further holds ups and take action on Gift Aid reform.
Over the past few years ACEVO and its members have become deeply frustrated by the previous government's evident lethargy on Gift aid reform.
Speaking on today's meeting Stephen Bubb said: "Whilst we welcome the coalition government's commitment to reform Gift Aid and we're glad that they called us together so quickly I didn't just jump off a red merry go round to jump on a blue and yellow one. We need action from the new government. Not more chat.
"As cuts gather apace Gift Aid becomes ever more important in supporting the crucial work of charities. It is also a key plank for us to help build a bigger society."
