Public Accounts Committee

2018 Financial Statements of the Charities Regulatory Authority

9:00 am

Ms Helen Martin:

Yes, there is a power in there to get accounts but the problem is it only applies to those charities that are not companies. If we were to introduce it it would only apply to approximately 40% of registered charities. In order to ensure that it is brought in in a fair manner and applies across the board to all charities we are looking for the carve out that is currently there in relation to companies to be removed.
