Committee of Supply 2024 debate, Day 6: Neil Parekh Nimil Rajnikant on supporting businesses in giving back
The Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Coordination Office operated by the Singapore Business Federation was set up for businesses to play a more significant role in society. Can the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY) share how it will work with the ESG Coordination Office to support businesses in integrating social impact into their business models and what is the progress thus far? Can MCCY share how the ESG Coordination Office and the National Volunteer and Philanthropy Centre better synergise efforts and also share its plans to encourage the business community and working professionals to contribute more to society beyond just making corporate donations and volunteering? NMP Neil Parekh Nimil Rajnikant raised these questions in Parliament on Wednesday (Mar 6).
