Regulation 34 Duty not to accept benefits from third partiesI1

England and Wales

(1)

A charity trustee (“T”) of a CIO must not accept a benefit from a third party conferred by reason of—

(a)

T being a charity trustee; or

(b)

T doing (or not doing) anything as a charity trustee.

(2)

Benefits received by T from a person by whom T’s services (as charity trustee or otherwise) are provided to the CIO are not regarded as conferred by a third party.

(3)

This duty is not infringed if the acceptance of the benefit cannot reasonably be regarded as likely to give rise to a conflict of interest.

(4)

In this regulation “third party” means a person other than the CIO, an associated body corporate, or a person acting on behalf of the CIO or an associated body corporate.
