Transparency Bill For Charitable Donations Passes First Reading | Voxy.co.nz: "Kiwis are one step closer to knowing how much of their donation ends up with the charity they're giving to, Selwyn MP Amy Adams says.
Ms Adams welcomes the passage of her Fair Trading (Soliciting on behalf of Charities) Amendment Bill which passed its first reading today.
The Bill was supported by all MPs and will go to the Commerce select committee for a chance for the public to have their say, she said. 'This Bill is about informing consumers and rebuilding the public's trust in the sector of charitable giving through enhanced transparency. New Zealanders have legitimate concerns about how much of their donations get to charities,' Ms Adams said."
