The Perks and Perils of Non-Statutory Fundraising Regulatory Regimes: An Anglo-Irish Perspective

Abstract  

This article reviews recent non-statutory attempts at charity fundraising regulation in the UK and Ireland. It explores the
definition of success for each regime and examines whether broader policy lessons for fundraising regulation may be learnt
from these implementation experiences to date. To this end, the article compares the UK framework for fundraising regulation
(via the Fundraising Standards Board) with recent Irish proposals for non-statutory regulation. It also identifies the key
challenges facing each regime. The article draws upon current Canadian, Dutch and American regulatory experiences and benchmarks
these alternative non-statutory efforts against the Anglo-Irish models by way of comparative analysis. The article tackles
the broader question of how we measure success in regulatory terms and argues for better identification of the constituency
to be regulated, thereby enabling prioritisation of the salient performance indicators that should be included in any non-statutory
framework.
