Charity avoids penalty for fundraiser breach. 08/03/2006. ABC News Online: "Charity avoids penalty for fundraiser breach

A children's charity has avoided deregistration after paying Cherie Blair, the wife of the British Prime Minister, to speak at a fundraising dinner in Melbourne.

Consumer Affairs Victoria says the Children's Cancer Institute Australia breached fundraising laws at a function in February last year at which Ms Blair gave a speech."
