Two consultation papers from the Law Reform Commission recommend legislative reform
of the charity sector in the Republic of Ireland.
The papers cover trust law and
charitable trust law, and have been prepared at the request of the Department of
Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs.

According to the Irish Examiner, “there are approximately 6,400 organisations with
tax exemption status in Ireland, including 1,328 trusts.”

Responses to the two papers should be made to the Law Reform Commission by 15 April
2005 for the charitable trust law paper and 29 April 2005 for the general trust 
law paper.
