Implementing The Charities Act 2022

Posted on May 25, 2022 at 11:59 am.

Written by Craig Staten-Spencer

This article is for information only and does not constitute legal or financial advice. Please consult one of our qualified lawyers or financial advisers for advice tailored to your specific position.

The Charites Act 2022 (the Act) received Royal Assent on 24 February 2022 which saw it become part of the law of England and Wales.

That said, the contents of the Act are far-reaching and the only parts of it that were implemented immediately upon Royal Assent being received related to its commencement.

The bulk of the Act’s contents will need changes to be made to existing laws and regulations by the Secretary of State and wider Government, as well as the guidance and advice issued by the Charity Commission.

Charity Commission guidance

The Charity Commission has now confirmed that they don’t expect all of the necessary changes to be in place until Autumn 2023 meaning that the Act will be implemented in phases over the coming months. Indeed, the Commission is expecting to produce at least 12 pieces of new or updated guidance – this in itself is no small undertaking.

Timescales

There is, as yet, no published timetable to indicate when each part of the Act is likely to be implemented, however, the Commission has confirmed its intention to provide this information as soon as it can. We would recommend that you keep a close eye on the Commission’s website and mailshots for further details.

Comment

Whilst the Act is designed to empower charity trustees to run and manger their charities as easily as possible, trustees will need to wait a while yet to use the new powers that the Act provides to them, details of which can be found in our recent blog.
