The Charities Regulatory Authority (the ‘Charities Regulator’) was established in October 2014 pursuant to the Charities Act 2009. The Authority is the State organisation responsible for registering and regulating all of Ireland’s charities, with the mandate to promote good governance practice.

My Department has been assigned responsibility for the Charities Regulator. It is important to note however, that the Regulator is fully independent in the performance of its statutory functions, including recruitment.

The Charities Regulator has 48 sanctioned roles within the 2022 REV. There are currently four full-time vacancies within the organisation. Two of these roles are expected to be filled by the end of November 2022, the third by mid-December 2022, and the fourth in Q2, 2023.
