NCS participants have dedicated over 12 million hours of volunteering to their local communities.</p> answering member constituency Eastleigh answering member printed Mims Davies question first answered 03/05/2019 14:04:15 answering member 4513 label Biography information for Mims Davies

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/05/2019 answer text <p>To be a charity, institutions, including Churches and other faith-based organisations in England and Wales, must meet the legal test for charitable status set out in the Charities Act 2011. This requires the institution to have a wholly charitable purpose for the benefit of the public. The advancement of religion has long been recognised as a charitable purpose. There is no presumption that a particular charitable purpose is for the public benefit.</p><p>The Charity Commission, as the independent regulator of charities in England and Wales, is responsible for assessing if an institution meets the legal test for charitable status.</p><p>There are no plans to change the legal test for charitable status which applies to Churches and other faith-based organisations who express and practise historic orthodox beliefs on the doctrine of marriage.</p> answering member constituency Eastleigh answering member printed Mims Davies question first answered 03/05/2019 14:08:22 answering member 4513 label Biography information for Mims Davies
