answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/01/2018 answer text <p>This is a matter for the Charity Commission as independent registrar and regulator of charities in England and Wales. The Commission has said that, on seeing the reported events, it immediately contacted the Presidents Club Charitable Trust and called for an urgent meeting. The Commission is also engaging with the Financial Times whose investigation uncovered the activities of the Presidents Club Charity Dinner, and has requested any further evidence to ensure it can look into these matters fully and robustly. The Commission has said that it will deal robustly with any misconduct or mismanagement it finds, will consider what further regulatory action may be required and will ensure that the charity is wound up in an orderly manner and that any remaining funds are distributed correctly. The Commission has also confirmed that it is in discussion with Equality and Human Rights Commission about these matters.</p><p><em> </em></p> answering member constituency Chatham and Aylesford answering member printed Tracey Crouch grouped question UIN 124905 question first answered 29/01/2018 14:06:40 answering member 3950 label Biography information for Dame Tracey Crouch
