answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/06/2018 answer text <p>The Gift Aid Small Donations Scheme allows charities to claim a Gift Aid-style top up payment in circumstances where it is not practical, or feasible to collect a Gift Aid declaration. To be eligible, donations made under the scheme must be made and banked in the United Kingdom. Requiring donations to be collected and banked in the UK helps to guard against fraud, as well as ensuring that most donations are made by UK taxpayers.</p> answering member constituency Newark answering member printed Robert Jenrick question first answered 08/06/2018 09:34:53 answering member 4320 label Biography information for Robert Jenrick
