Charities (Regulation and Administration) (Scotland) Act 2023
Since 2019, SCVO has been heavily involved throughout the legislative process for the Charities (Regulation and Administration) (Scotland) Act 2023. And following the Act's passing, we want to continue to ensure that its changes are made effectively and efficiently.
As OSCR and the Scottish Government proceed with the implementation of the Act’s proposals, we want to ensure that all organisations are not only aware of the forthcoming changes but are provided with effective guidance so that they can fully understand what these changes will mean for them.
Find out more about the new Act and how SCVO are influencing its progress on our new charity law hub.
