Community Sector Task Force
The Community Sector Task Force report was published at the end of December 2006. It recommends a shift in emphasis towards investment in community assets. Proposals included 50m to build community capacity to play an effective role on Local Area Agreements, 35m a year for community micro grants, and expansion of the Adventure Capital Fund from 15m to 30m to invest in community anchor organisations. We do not know as yet whether the government will act on any of these recommendations. To read the Community Sector Task Force report click here.
