Must exempt charities register with the Charity Commission?

Answered 1 May 2008 by c.cattell

Exempt charity fears:

I have heard that existing exempt charities will be - or are being - required to change their constitutions to allow them to register as charities, because their current status is no longer recognised. I am aware that the proposed CIO may lead to all charitable organisations being forced to use this new form at some time in the future, but have I missed a more imminent threat or are urban myths circulating once again?
