Welsh government to investigate alleged abuse of charitable funds - Civil Society - Governance - News - providing news and in-depth coverage of charities, voluntary organisations and not-for-profits

Welsh government to investigate alleged abuse of charitable funds - Civil Society - Governance - News - providing news and in-depth coverage of charities, voluntary organisations and not-for-profits: The Welsh government has launched an investigation into the All Wales Ethnic Minority Association (Awema), which is mired in a trustee row over alleged misuse of charity funds by its chief executive.

Vice-chair of the charity Dr Sibani Roy has resigned in protest at the refusal of Awema’s chief executive Naz Malik to step down following an inquiry report commissioned by some of the trustees, which found instances of serious abuse of funds and other misconduct within the organisation.
