“…106 Those championing reform were convinced that the removal of every trace of a presumption would ensure the application of 'the same strong public benefit test across all four heads of charity' 107 and 'create a level playing field on which all charities will have to show that they are for the public benefit'. 108 For Luxton, however, s 4(2) had no effect on charitable status, 'because such status is not dependent on any presumption but has been established by law'. 109 On the basis that the section did not have the impact that was envisaged, the provision came to be viewed as no more than 'a political statement, which has affected practice and perception but hasn't really altered the law' 110 or as serving only 'to give expression to the extant practice of the Charity Commission, whereby all charities have been required to demonstrate public benefit in order to be registered as a charity'.…”

The Charities Act 2011 requires that charitable purposes must fit within one or more of the statutory descriptions of ‘charity’ and, demonstrably, be in the public benefit. From the perspective of the now dismantled fourth Pemsel head of charity, this article examines the elusive concept of a charitable purpose and the misconceived statutory public benefit requirement. The guidance and decision-making roles of the Charity Commission are appraised and problems in applying the current law exposed. As few charity cases reach the courts or Upper Tribunal, this work analyses the limited, but important, registration appeals that have reached the First-tier Tribunal. It will explore the emerging trends in charity appeals, the divergent approaches adopted by the Commission and the Tribunal and the lamentable degree of unpredictability facing prospective charity trustees. It concludes that an absence of clear-thinking pervades this vital aspect of charity law and invites reworking and revision.

The Steel Bible: A Case Study of 20th Century Technical Communication

The "steel bible" emerged in 1919 and went through 11 editions in 80 years. In its evolution we can see the shift from individual to group authorship, an increasing use of visual elements, and a physical change from a small, hand-held volume to a weighty desktop reference. In a textual analysis, we can see that it was essentially static, changing only by additions and deletions, as the industry evolved. The eventual closing of hundreds of plants and the migration of the industry to other countries can be seen in the change of publisher, the sudden absence of photography, and the international references. Originally, the steel bible came from the factory floor and the words of the plant managers, but by the 1990s, it was a highly-abstracted representation of knowledge. In the steel bible, we can see the history of the industry and the maturing of technical communication in the 20th century.
