Charity register has more detail and clarity
2nd October 2008, 2:36 pm
A new version of the Charity Commission’s online register went live on 1st October. There are graphs and more detail on accounts for larger charities and, as mentioned previously, those filing accounts late get a red border highlighting the fact. Late filing will also show up where a trustee is on the board of another charity which has missed the deadline, on the trustees detail page.
Much of the financial analysis uses Flash, but the printable report is text based. Information uploaded by charities should appear the next day.
