Ms Helen Martin:
Ultimately, it is an issue of policy. Once an organisation fulfils the charity test, ends up with a charitable tax exemption or was deemed registered back in 2014, it is on the register as a charity. I am not aware of the particular example and whether the school was deemed registered. I think it was deemed registered so it came onto the register automatically. The advancement of education is a charitable purpose under the Act.
