The Commission published a draft Order, which it proposed to make under section 18(5) of the Charities Act 1993 (as amended) to appoint ten people to be the interim trustees of the charity in order to facilitate trustee elections. The Commission received two representations, one supporting the proposed Order and one objecting to it.

A review of the representations was conducted by a senior manager in the Commission’s Specialist Casework Division, who gave the applicants the opportunity to clarify their representations by telephone.

On considering the representations, the Commission decided that the Order should be made to establish a membership for the charity and call an Annual General Meeting at which trustee elections can be held.
