Charities Bill [HL]

I am most grateful to all those who have taken part in this debate. I am particularly grateful to my noble friend Lord Campbell-Savours who made the extremely powerful point that the credibility of charity law continues to be in doubt so long as Eton—excuse one for the inevitable picking on one school—continues to be regarded as deserving of charitable status.
