Extending the definition of “qualified surveyor” in section 36(4) of the Charities Act 1993
Currently, trustees of English and Welsh charities who want to sell or otherwise dispose of land must normally get a written report from a professional adviser who is a “qualified surveyor” as defined by the Charities Act 1993. This definition may be too narrow and we are consulting about extending it to include Fellows of the National Association of Estate Agents.
We would particularly like to hear from property professionals, such as surveyors and estate agents, and charities that own land or interests in land, such as leases. But anyone can respond and all views will be considered in full.
