Government redestributing unused bank accounts
Submitted by Forum_Admin on 4 August, 2005 - 09:07.
Hi
I'm not sure whether this should be posted in this forum, so apologies if not relevant.
I have read that the government plans to share the money from unused bank accounts between a select number of charities.
Whilst trying to find out more information, all I could find were investor sites opposed to the scheme.
However, I wondered whether anyone had any further informaiton, ie how does a charity get on the list?
It was reported in The Times on 21st July.
Thanks
Kate

A quick search on this site shows that we've been covering the development of two initiatives in this area since 1992. There is the Charity Commission's work:
Charity Commission hunts out dormant charity bank accounts

and that of the Balance Charitable Foundation:
