I am advised that the organisation referred to by the Deputy does not appear on the Register of Charities and therefore is not a registered charity.  The Register of Charities is publicly available for inspection on the Charities Regulator’s website www.charitiesregulator.ie.

Under the Charities Act 2009 the Charities Regulator is independent in the performance of its functions.It is the policy of the Charities Regulator not to comment to third parties in relation to specific applications for registration because to divulge information to a third party could prejudice a future decision. My Department has no function in this matter.
