Pre-Budget consultation event for NICVA Members
Visit the Smart Solutions in Tough Times campaign homepage
The Northern Ireland Executive is due to issue its next budget for public consultation at the end of October, but NICVA believes that the time to influence it is now.
With Northern Ireland expecting to lose over £1.2 billion over four years this is a crucial budget for the Executive and for voluntary and community organisations right across Northern Ireland. NICVA believes that the time for effectively influencing decisions is during the months leading up to the publication of the consultation document. We know that government departments are already analysing their budgets and considering departmental priorities.
This seminar, which is part of the Vital Links project supported by PEACE III Programme and managed by the Special EU Programmes Body, is for NICVA members. It will be held at NICVA, 61 Duncairn Gardens on Tuesday 10 August from 11.00am - 1.00pm. At this event top officials from the Department of Finance and Personnel will outline the current state of play regarding public expenditure and explain the process for developing the budget.
Please note that this is an event for voluntary and community organisations only.
To confirm your attendance, please contact Cathy Breslin on 028 9087 7777 or email: Cathy.Breslin@nicva.org
