More information for MPs on registered charities
14th July 2008, 3:38 pm
The Charity Commission has created a facility for Members of Parliament so that they can find and collate details of registered charities in their constituency (based on correspondent address), making it easier to get in touch. There is also an MPs toolkit of practical factsheets on issues such as what to do if a constituents complains about a charity and charity collection scams.
