The Voluntary Assistance Scheme of The Bar of Ireland held a joint event with the Charities Regulator on the recently launched Charities Governance Code in the Gaffney Room on 17th January 2019. The Gaffney Room was fully booked with a large audience also simultaneously watching the event online too. Informative presentations were given by Jonathan Miller BL, Micheál D O’Connell SC from the Law Library and Tom Malone & Sarah Mongey from the Charities Regulator. The presentations were intended to support charities and guide them towards complying with their legal duties and excellent feedback have been received to-date from the charities present.
