New Regulations For Charities To Be Implemented Following Console Controversy

Charities will soon be required to report their annual finances to the Charity Regulator.

Tánaiste and Minister for Justice, Frances Fitzgerald, will launch the regulator's strategy for the next two years, this morning.

The regulator wants to improve transparency - by maintaining an up-to-date charity register and carrying out worker satisfaction surveys.

The statement has been prepared for a number of months and won't deal specifically with the Console revelations.
