Our response to the draft Programme for Government 2024-2027 ‘Our Plan: Doing What Matters Most’ was informed by a series of online engagement sessions for voluntary and community sector representatives hosted in partnership with Rural Community Network, Volunteer Now, CO3 and Development Trusts.
The aim of the sessions was to provide an overview of the key priorities detailed within the draft plan and hear sector views and feedback, senior representatives from TEO Programme for Government engagement team were also in attendance at these sessions.
You can view more details of these sessions and a summary of key messages from the sessions here : Summary of Key Messages from across the Sector on the draft Programme for Government 2024-27 | NICVA.
In formulating our response we also considered key messaging from submissions made from organisations across the voluntary and community sector, that had been shared with us.
NICVA have advised TEO that sector is keen to hear feedback from the public consultation process as soon as is practical.
