More DescriptionThere has been growing awareness in recent years of the importance of good governance in the operation of UK corporate charities and other types of charitable organizations. Increasing numbers of larger charities are adopting governance structures and procedures which share the same features as public companies in terms of boards and committees. Charities are interested in implementing good practice to satisfy the regulatory demands of the UK Charities Commission and the watchful eyes of auditors who are under a duty to whistle blow if they suspect irregularities. This book provides a practical account of the UK law and regulation applying to charities and how best to comply through good governance.
