This Order restricts the purposes for which, and the kinds of person to which, a distribution of dormant account money may be made under the Dormant Bank and Building Society Accounts Act 2008 (“the 2008 Act”) for meeting Scottish expenditure. The distribution of funds will be administered under directions given to the Big Lottery Fund by the Scottish Ministers under section 22(5) of the 2008 Act.

Article 3 provides that distributions may be made to third sector organisations on or connected with services, facilities or opportunities which promote strong, resilient and supportive communities.
