Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Graham P Jones (Labour), on Tuesday, 23 July 2019, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 10 members in total.


CHARITY REGULATION

That this House notes the exceptional contribution that charities make to the fabric of British society; acknowledges that regulation of charities is essential to ensure their high standards of operation; further notes that some charitable organisations have fallen below the standards expected of them, which brings the reputation of all charities into disrepute; observes that some charities that break laws and regulations are not properly investigated by the Charities Commission; and calls on the Government to provide more resources to the Charities Commission to properly investigate charities that break laws and regulations in order to preserve the sector’s good reputation.
