This item will show under the following categories: Health and Social CareCalls for a more detailed review of charity law have been made despite Charities Act 2023 recently gaining royal assent.

The call comes in an open letter addressed to social justice secretary Shirley-Anne Somerville. The letter outlines that the last uplift in the company law audit threshold took place in 2016, but regulatory changes to the audit environment have led to a rise in demand for audit skills in a tight labour market and an increase in audit fees.
