Project No. 34(VI)

During 1995, Mr Peter Creighton, a member of the Commission and a specialist in the law of trusts, carried out a review of the issues involved in this aspect of the reference and confirmed the Commission’s earlier view that the subject did not warrant further inquiry. It was also established that the Ministry of Fair Trading was conducting a concurrent inquiry into the law relating to charitable collections. In December 1995, the Commission reviewed the project on charitable uses in light of its decision to restructure its operations and determined that no further work should be done on the project. The reference was subsequently withdrawn.
