Charities such as the Charities Aid Foundation have welcomed enthusiastically the
package

of measures laid down in the Chancellor’s pre-budget speech today to generate greater

From April 2000, donors will, for example, be able to make
Gift Aid donations of any amount via the telephone and Internet.
