Minister of State at the Department of Rural and Community Development

The Charities Regulator is fully independent in the performance of its statutory functions under Section 14 (3) of the Charities Act 2009.  Neither I nor my Department have any role in the decision making process of the Regulator, particularly with regard to the registration of charities and whether they are operating in accordance with regulations. That is entirely a matter for the Regulator and any queries should be raised directly with the Regulator.
