Clause 42
Charities Bill [Lords]
5:45 pm
Peter Bottomley (Worthing West, Conservative)
I am not trying to draft the thing off the top of my head. What I had in mind was to say that in cases where a recognised charity—I use the word “recognised” imprecisely—does not take formal votes, but where there is a requirement for a vote such as the one in the provision that I cited, a decision taken without dissent would be regarded as equivalent.
