Legal Terms -Charity Commission
a statutory organization that oversees charity administration in England and Wales and is now subject to Part 2 of the Charities Act of 2011. The Commissioners are in charge of encouraging the efficient use of charitable funds, supporting the advancement of improved administrative techniques, providing information and counsel to charity trustees on issues pertaining to charities, and looking into and verifying abuses. A body may appeal the Commissioners' judgment to the High Court or the *Charity Tribunal (for decisions made after March 18, 2008). The Commissioners keep an electronic record of charities and make decisions on registration. The Stationery Office publishes their Annual Reports, which provide an overview of the Commissioners' workings and the ways in which they are fostering the development of charity legislation.
