Date: 13 November 2008

Dear Mr Groom

St Stephen the Great Charitable Trust (the Trust) and St Stephen the Great (The Company) (1119839)

Thank you for your email dated the 27 October about the above charities. I confirm that concerns have already been raised with the Commission relating to governance and internal financial controls at the Trust and the Company.

We have therefore contacted the trustees to clarify the situation with regard to some of the points raised. On the basis both of the initial concerns raised with the Commission and of the information provided by the charity in response, on 26 September 2008 we opened a formal inquiry under section 8 of the Charities Act 1993.

Because this inquiry remains open and ongoing I will not be in a position to go into further detail at this time, but we would normally look to make a report available once the inquiry was concluded.

Nevertheless, I have noted your concerns but would like to mention that some of these fall outside the remit of the Commission.

Any concerns regarding gift aid should be referred to Her Majestys Revenue and Customs which is the organisation with the necessary expertise to deal with such matters. Furthermore, the Commission cannot get involved in employment matters.

I hope the above is clear.

Yours sincerely

William Thomas Fahey"

Note 2:
An attempt to make this organisation bankrupt in Texas with $1.5m million owed to suppliers was "dismissed with prejudice" in September 2008, and J Mark Brewer admitted that the application had been made in bad faith in response to a motion accussing him of committing a "Fraud on the Court".

Note also that:

Hereford Cathedral did not like the use of their premises, without permission, for this video. And SPCK is still on it. And the Tufton Street address. And the quote that theyre buying St Cuthberts, Bensham - no longer true.

  • I'm proud to bear Saint Stephen's name and proud to be a Romanian from the region of Moldavia which Stephen the Great protected with utmost sanctity from the overwhelming Ottoman Empire
