The Charity Commission publishes new guidance (9 June 2009) explaining how the requirements of charity law apply to research carried out by Universities and other Higher Education Institutions, particularly research conducted in partnership with non-charitable organisations.
Unico has been working with HEFCE, the HMRC and the Charity Commission on developing this guidance. Session B2, Charity Law, Tax Law and Research - Implications for working with Industry on Thursday, 11 June (1330-1500hrs) outlines the problem, guidance and further implications.
