Part 9E+WCharity trustees, trustees and auditors etc.

Remuneration of charity trustees and trustees etc.E+W

186Disqualification of charity trustee or trustee receiving remuneration under s.185E+W

(1)This section applies to any charity trustee or trustee for a charity—

(a)who is or would be entitled to remuneration under an agreement or proposed agreement within Condition A, or

(b)who is connected with a person who is or would be so entitled.

(2)The charity trustee or trustee for a charity is disqualified from acting as such in relation to any decision or other matter connected with the agreement.

(3)But if an act is done by a person who is disqualified from doing it by virtue of subsection (2), the act is not invalid merely because of that disqualification.

(4)If the Commission is satisfied—

(a)that a person (“P”) has done any act which P was disqualified from doing by virtue of subsection (2), and

(b)that P or a person connected with P has received or is to receive from the charity any remuneration under the agreement in question,

it may make an order under subsection (5) or (6) (as appropriate).

(5)An order under this subsection is one requiring P—

(a)to reimburse to the charity the whole or part of the remuneration received as mentioned in subsection (4)(b);

(b)to the extent that the remuneration consists of a benefit in kind, to reimburse to the charity the whole or part of the monetary value (as determined by the Commission) of the benefit in kind.

(6)An order under this subsection is one directing that P or (as the case may be) the connected person is not to be paid the whole or part of the remuneration mentioned in subsection (4)(b).

(7)If the Commission makes an order under subsection (5) or (6), P or (as the case may be) the connected person accordingly ceases to have any entitlement under the agreement to so much of the remuneration (or its monetary value) as the order requires P to reimburse to the charity or (as the case may be) as it directs is not to be paid to P.

(8)Sections 187 and 188 (interpretation) apply for the purposes of this section.
