Governance: Regulatory finding

“The Charity Commission issued a regulatory finding against CAA over the publication of an article which the Commission claimed did not further CAA’s charitable objects. The Commission further criticised CAA for not keeping adequate records of its decision to publish the article. The Commission has since withdrawn its finding in relation to the article itself. Whether CAA maintained adequate records remains subject to legal challenge by CAA.” — page 10
