Charitable Collections Act 1946

The advisory committee shall, when requested by the Commissioner, inquire whether any licence held by any person, society, body or association should be revoked.

The advisory committee may recommend that any such licence be revoked if it is of the opinion —

that the money or goods received for charitable purposes by the person, society, body or association are mismanaged or are substantially applied otherwise than for affording the relief for which the money or goods were collected; or

that the amount of any money or goods received by the person, society, body or association and applied towards charitable purposes or to be so applied is inadequate in proportion to the total amount so received; or

that remuneration at a rate which is excessive, in relation to the part of any money or goods received by the person, society, body or association and applied towards charitable purposes, has been, or is likely to be, paid to any person from the money or goods so received; or

that the person, society, body or association has ceased effectively to carry out any charitable purpose; or

that for any other reason the licence should be revoked.
