Charities Act 2006: Charitable Collections |
The Chief Solicitor advised that the Charities Act 2006 introduced a new regime for regulating public charitable collections, replacing the existing legislation relating to street collections and house-to-house collections. It was reported that it would be necessary to update the delegations contained in Part 3 of the Constitution as this legislation was implemented. He further advised that existing delegations CHS 200.03 (house-to-house collections) and CHS 200.08 (street collections) would need to be updated to reflect the new legislation once those parts of the Act had been implemented. RECOMMENDED: That, with effect from the commencement date of the relevant provisions in the Charities Act 2006, Part 3 of the Council's constitution be amended by deleting the existing delegations CHS 200.03 and CHS 200.08 and the insertion of the following new delegation: CHS 209 To grant applications for licences, registrations, consents and permits and issue notices under Charities Act 2006 (charitable collections).
