Memorandum from Consumers' Association
(DCH 134)
The Consumers' Association is grateful for the
opportunity to comment on the consultative proposals for a Charities
Bill.
We support the substance of what is proposed
and we wish to associate ourselves with the comments of the Institute
of Fundraising and the way that self regulation should develop
in the Charities Sector following the proposals in the Buse report.
We would stress the importance of increasing transparency and
availability of information about the uses to which charitable
donations are put, so as to increase donor confidence.
