Impact on Local Charities
The updates to the CFT framework may have a significant impact on local charities, which often rely on donations and funding from a variety of sources. Charities will need to ensure that they have the necessary systems and controls in place to comply with the updated framework. The drop-in session will provide an opportunity for charities to learn about the changes and to ask questions about how they will be affected.
