The Charity Commission sought the previous Attorney General\u2019s permission to refer a number of questions to the Tribunal concerning the Corporation of the Hall of Arts and Sciences \u2013 the Royal Albert Hall \u2013 which is a registered charity. While the Charity Commission has the power to refer questions to the Tribunal, it may only do so with the consent of the Attorney General, as set out in section 325 of the Charities Act 2011.<\/p>
<\/p>
The issues concerned in this case are complex. The Attorney General\u2019s Office (AGO) has engaged with the parties since the original request was made in order to explore the issues, which involve both modern charity law and its application to an organisation established over 150 years ago. This engagement has helped to refine the issues.<\/p>
<\/p>
Before taking a decision on whether to consent to the latest iteration of the Commission\u2019s request, the previous Attorney General asked the Commission and the Corporation to try to find a way forward without recourse to litigation. The AGO is awaiting an indication from the parties regarding the outcome of that process.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4899", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Stewart of Dirleton"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Lord Stewart of Dirleton"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2021-05-25", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2021-05-25T12:03:06.413Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "88"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Attorney General"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Attorney General"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2021-05-11", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Royal Albert Hall"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty's Government when they will make a decision about the Charity Commission's request to refer the Royal Albert Hall to the charity tribunal.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1651", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Hodgson of Astley Abbotts"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Hodgson of Astley Abbotts"} ], "uin" : "HL38"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 2, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
