Answer
The Code of Practice for Reducing Bureaucracy in Grant Funding to the Voluntary and Community Sector is an internal administrative document for use by Government Departments their Agencies and Non Departmental Public Bodies.
The Northern Ireland Council for Voluntary Action (NICVA) participated in the project structure to help inform the emerging code. Whilst no specific date has been set for its launch (work on the code is being finalised) this is now expected to take place around May 2015.
