I move amendment No. 20:

In page 38, between lines 8 and 9, to insert the following: “(b) the circumstances in which a charitable organisation (other than a charitable organisation referred to in section 88C(6)) may make an appointment having regard to the requirements of different charitable organisations,”

Amendment No. 20 allows for ministerial regulations to prescribe those specific instances where an employee can become a trustee of the same organisation. As previously outlined, such appointments are only intended for exceptional circumstances and these regulations will set these out in detail.

Amendments Nos. 21 to 25, inclusive, are all technical in nature and are necessary due to the insertion of amendment No. 20, which required an amendment for each subsequent paragraph.
