In order to work effectively with the voluntary sector a Third Sector Partnership Council has been established. The Council consists of National Assembly Members and representatives appointed from the voluntary sector.

The Third Sector Partnership Council shall:

• advise on the implementation, monitoring and review of the Third Sector Scheme including establishing indicators by which the Scheme shall be evaluated
• facilitate consultation with relevant voluntary sector organisations and public sector bodies on the Scheme’s implementation, operation and review
• advise on implementation and operation of the Scheme and prepare an annual report for consideration by the National Assembly 
• propose arrangements for reviewing the Scheme after each ordinary election of the National Assembly and assist in the review process
• consider issues that relate to the implementation of the Scheme that affect, or are of concern to, the voluntary sector and make recommendations to the National Assembly
• consider issues that relate to the functions and responsibilities of the National Assembly that affect, or are of concern to, the voluntary sector and are wider than the responsibilities of a single subject committee, and make recommendations to the National Assembly.
