Payroll Giving – some options Presentation to Institute of Fundraising Special Interest Group on Payroll Giving Gareth Potts, Cabinet Office November 1st 2011
Context • Giving White Paper • Need to look at system reform • Making PG something that charities like and want to promote • Making PG something that compares well with over forms of giving • Non-options • Do-nothing • Scrap PG
Option 1 - Improve the existing system • working with existing PGAs to improve performance • tighten existing regulation • reducing the time in which they must process donations • shared contracts • template for data submission to charities • funds to upgrade antiquated systems (e.g. reducing reliance on paper forms).
Option 2 - Encouraging the entrance of a new-look PGA • all the aspects seen in Option 1 • new entrant might offer a donor- and charity-friendly online giving experience • rapid processing of donations • potentially building on their current on-line giving platforms.
Option 3 - License a single PGA (‘Camelot Model’) • HMRC would license a single PGA to operate PG for a set period (e.g. five years) • following a competitive application process • operator would be expected to provide a “total solution” • managing the whole process from donor interface • processing donations
Option 4 - Centralised PG infrastructure • single back end system • processing payments • data/ reporting services for charities • donor and employer-facing elements of the system (e.g. the website through which a donor signs up) could be developed by any number of providers. • similarly large companies could provide customised sites for their employees that linked directly to this back-end infrastructure.
Taking things forward • Where we are at – option consideration / ideas welcome • Implications for charities - invite
