Cross-border philanthropy has the potential to play a significant role in providing alternative sources of funding for our entrepreneurs and SMEs. My Department is supportive of any initiatives in this area.
However, the implementation of the recommendations set out in the social economy framework conditions falls under the remit of the Minister for Community and Rural Development.
Funding allocation for the implementation of relevant recommendations falls under the remit of the Minister for Finance.
