Concerns over tackling exploitation of charities

14th January 2008, 3:37 pm

A report from the Home Office and HM Treasury, ‘Review of Safeguards to Protect the Charitable Sector from Terrorist Abuse’, has been criticised by voluntary sector groups as ignoring views expressed in earlier consultation.

Third Sector reports Martin Hearson of development groups umbrella BOND saying “This report does not respond to our concerns. The Government has the right to disagree, but it has not even engaged with the sector’s views.” http://www.thirdsector.co.uk/News/775357/ (registration required).
