HC Deb 03 November 1983 vol 47 cc418-9W
10. Mr. Yeo

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will review the responsibilities he has for charities.

Mr. Mellor

My right hon. and learned Friend keeps under review his responsibilities for the general law concerning charity in the light of proposals which are made from time to time. We have no plans at present for legislation in this field.

23. Mr. Spearing

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if Her Majesty's Government will introduce legislation to control the use of the names of charities in promotions or events with which they have no formal connection.

Mr. Mellor

We have no plans at present to do so.
