Subject Matter of the Lobbying Activities

Details Regarding the Identified Subject Matter

Will any of the lobbyists listed within this registration arrange a meeting between a public office holder and any other individual for the purpose of attempting to influence any of the matters listed below:

Yes

Specific Topics of Lobbying Communications	Intended Outcomes	Associated Subject Matters
We recommend expanding access to multi-year funding agreements, to support efficient and effective non-profit programs and services. In particular, access should be expanded for existing programs that have proven efficacy, especially for small- and medium-sized organizations. We recommend increasing all project-based funding’s percentage of allowable core or administrative costs beyond the common 5-15% limit. As realistic core costs vary between 15-30%, non-profits are forced to spend more time and resources chasing funds to make up for this shortfall, rather than delivering programs. Funding agreements should allow a flexible, unrestricted percentage of expenses to be allocated to administration, infrastructure, physical space, and data collection and evaluation.	Development or enactment of any regulation, including the enactment of a regulation for the purposes of amending or repealing a regulation Development, establishment, amendment or termination of any program, policy, directive or guideline of the government of British Columbia or a Provincial entity	Non-Profit Organization
