Proceeding contribution from Lord Swinfen (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 12 July 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HL) on Charities Bill [HL].


Charities Bill [HL]

The noble Lord, Lord Phillips of Sudbury, referred to the issue of the cost to the charity. At the other end, the appointment of a receiver or manager could very often make it virtually impossible for a charity to raise the necessary funds to undertake its charitable work. My noble friend’s amendment is extremely sensible. I cannot see a good reason why the Government should refuse it.
