It examines guidance published in 2008 and 2013 by the Charity Commission and measures its accuracy against principles extrapolated from case law, with a focus on fee-charging charities, and independent schools in particular. It also considers the implementation of the Charity Commission’s public benefit assessments of independent schools during 2008/2009. The book offers a comparative study of the law relating to public benefit in Scotland and presents an analysis of the decision of the Upper Tribunal (Tax and Chancery) in proceedings brought by the Independent Schools Council and Attorney General in 2011.
