How was the code developed?

The Office for the Community and Voluntary Sector (OCVS) contracted Standards New Zealand to develop the content of the Code of funding practice. Standards New Zealand held a series of stakeholder interviews to inform the development of an initial draft. The interviewees were drawn from both the non-government and government sector.

The initial draft of the Code was presented at a meeting, on 8 April 2010, of the OCVS-led Funding and Accountability Interest Group (FAIG) with the feedback from the meeting incorporated into the consultation draft of the Code.

This consultation draft of the Code of funding practice was released for public consultation between 16 April and 14 May 2010. Standards New Zealand collated and reviewed all feedback and comments received on the Code during the consultation period.
The final version of the Code of funding practice was delivered to OCVS on 31 August 2010.


Funding and Accountability Interest Group

In order to obtain a wide range of advice on the new Code of Funding Practice, the OCVS drew on input from an extensive network of community sector contacts and government officials with knowledge and expertise in government funding of the non-profit sector. This network, the Funding and Accountability Interest Group (FAIG) includes the following community sector people and government agencies.
