Charities Bill [HL]

In moving the amendment I suggested that, if the principle were accepted at Committee stage the amendment would require further specifications. My noble friend on the Front Bench has pointed out that, as it stands, the commission may carry out some revision. In fact, its document states:"““We will carry out research exercises on fee charging charities and these exercises will include gathering information on their fee-charging policies and practices. [It] will also take account of other factors””." I am glad to see that, but an obligation should be included. The Minister has explained why it is not and I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
