Catholic adoption charity can appeal

Catholic Care has been granted leave to appeal to the High Court against seven out of fourteen points of the Charity Tribunal’s recent decision not to allow it to discriminate against gay people, reports Charity Finance. The seven points that are allowed collectively raise the same point of law, namely that the Tribunal erred in its interpretation of the Equality Act (Sexual Orientation) Regulations 2007 and its interpretation of regulation 18 in particular.
