The Charities Act 2011 comes into force on 14 March 2012 – the day of this seminar!  It consolidates almost the whole of charity law for England and Wales into a single new Act.  For the first time in a generation, the framework of charity law is now in one clear understandable Act (replacing most parts of the Recreational Charities Act 1958, Charities Act 1993 and Charities Act 2006).  During an intense half day session, Gareth Morgan will offer a rapid review of all the main provisions in the Act: ranging from the definition of “charity” and the updated public benefit requirement, charity registration, the duties and powers of the Charity Commission, cy près rules (where charitable property is applied to new purposes), rules on charity land, charity accounting, and the new legal structure of the charitable incorporated organisation.

Timings for this event are 09.45-12.45 (coffee from 09.30).  For location and booking conditions, please see our main Seminars page.
