We absolutely agree with this problem statement. In our original 2019 submission, we raised our concerns about the transparency of the regulator, and the inconsistencies we observed in their decisions around charitable purposes and advocacy. That submission also raised our concerns as a Christian charity of potential intolerance to our worldviews and mission from the regulator in modern Aotearoa. This lack of transparency, real or perceived, does garner trust in the wider charities sector. That is why in our original submission, we submitted that an independent body such as the Law Commission was better suited to undertake this review, rather than the DIA. |
