Robust debate and good news for charities

What happened at yesterday's Public Accounts Committee -PAC - of Dáil Éireann is nothing less than sensational.

Deputies quizzed Garda Commissioner Martin Callinan and he defended the force.

It is most likely that these stories are unfolding day-in-day-out because of the technological times in which we are living.

Good or bad?

Other news out today is the appointment of a temporary regulator for charities.

Will this mean that all church organisations will have to develop systems/protocols which will be acceptable by the State?

It certainly would be a step in the right direction.

Under no circumstances should the churches be exempt from the remit of the Charities' Commissioner.
