As I previously informed the House, preparation of the draft legislation to put in place a modern statutory framework for charities is a priority and work is proceeding accordingly.

To update the Deputy on developments since I replied to similar questions last month, I should add that public consultation undertaken for my Department by the Law Reform Commission in relation to charitable trust law reform has now concluded and examination of submissions received is currently under way.
