The Charities Regulator has secured a High Court order appointing a provisional liquidator to the operating company of the Dublin based homeless charity, Inner City Helping Homeless.

The regulator’s application on Thursday was made as a “last resort” in the public interest, James Doherty SC said. There is “urgent need” for court intervention and the legal test for appointment of a provisional liquidator to North Inner City Homeless Company Ltd, in advance of hearing a winding up petition has been met “in spades”.
