Abstract

The collapse of the high profile charity Kids Company case has received a lot of adverse media and other attention. This article considers the ramifications of certain of the observations made by the Judge who tried the disqualification proceedings in that case.  It seeks to demonstrate that the generous views of the Judge on how the disqualification of errant directors running charitable companies should be approached are unlikely to be accepted by the courts. It also analyses why certain of the suggestions made by the Judge cannot be implemented without wholesale statutory changes being made to the disqualification regime and why those changes are unlikely to be implemented by the Government.
