I am advised by Revenue that it has made contact with the body in question on a number of occasions, the most recent being on 9 June 2016, requesting additional information in support of its application for charitable tax exemption.

To date the body has not provided the level of information requested, which is delaying a final decision on the issue. To advance matters, it should contact Mr Gavin Whitehead of Revenues Charities Section at telephone 067 63303.
