Mr. O’Connor mentioned that it is important that the work of the appeal tribunal be transparent. Section 78 of the Charities Act 2009 states that “proceedings before the tribunal shall be conducted in public”. Obviously, there have not been any hearings as of yet. However, is Mr. O’Connor satisfied he has a suitable forum available where the public can hear submissions be made to the tribunal?
