contribution agreement with Nova Scotia charity

The Canada Revenue Agency announced the signing of a contribution agreement with the Legal Information Society of Nova Scotia (LISNS) "that will see charities create educational programs to support other charities in their efforts to meet their regulatory obligations." The announcement was made by Gerald Keddy, Member of Parliament for South Shore-St. Margaret's, on behalf of the Honourable Carol Skelton, Minister of National Revenue.

According to the CRA web site, "this is the first contribution agreement signed under the Canada Revenue Agency's (CRA) Charities Partnership and Outreach program, which will support compliance-related education and training projects for charities."

The Charities Partnership and Outreach Program is an important part of the Canada Revenue Agency's efforts to modernize the regulation of charities.
