Registration of charities in Northern Ireland will start by next summer - Third Sector: "Legislation to clarify the Charities Act will clear the way for it to begin its work

The Charity Commission for Northern Ireland will produce new guidance on its public benefit assessments early next year and aims to start registering charities by the summer, according to Frances McCandless, its chief executive.

The organisation was due to start registering charities this autumn but had to put its plans on hold because of problems with Northern Ireland's Charities Act 2008."
