Charities Bill 2007: Report Stage (Resumed).
4:00 pm
Ciarán Lynch (Cork South Central, Labour)
For further clarity, in common with other householders, plastic bags are delivered to Members' doors on a regular basis from people who wish to collect clothes and similar items. There is some concern among the public that some of the organisations involved are not acting appropriately and that the clothes, shoes, books and so on that are being donated are not going to charities. Is this the kind of illegal practice that will be targeted by this type of legislation?
