Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what steps he is taking to reduce the level of regulation on community and amateur sports clubs.

Following a consultation across the sector, new regulations were put in place on 1 April 2015. These regulations seek to balance necessary regulation of a varied sector and support for this important group. The Government will continue to monitor the regulation and effectiveness of charitable tax reliefs within the scheme and more widely.
