Dear S9(2)(a)
Formal notice: Please ensure that your charity is up-to-date with filing Annual 
Returns to avoid being deregistered. 

Our  records  show  that  we  have  not  received  complete  Annual  Returns  from  your 
charity for the years ending 31 March 2016 and 2017. This is despite the fact that we 
have  sent  reminders  about  the  need  to  file  Annual  Returns  to  the  contact  email 
address that your charity has provided to us. 
We  are  therefore  sending  you  this  formal  notice  that  Charities  Services  intends  to 
remove  Te  Kaha  O  Te  Rangatahi  Incorporated  (your  charity)  from  the  Charities 
Register unless we receive complete Annual Returns for the years ending 31 March 
2016 and 2017 by Wednesday, 01 November 2017. 
Every  charity  registered with  Charities  Services  is  required  to file  an  Annual  Return 
(including financial statements) within six months of its annual balance date.1 Annual 
Returns are important because they enable the public to access relevant information 
about  a  charity’s  activities  and  use  of resources,  leading  to greater  public  trust  and 
confidence in the charitable sector.  
Grounds for this notice 
We consider that your charity’s failure to file Annual Returns for the years ending 31 
under the Official Information Act 1982
March  2016  and  2017  is  a  persistent  breach  of  your  charity’s  obligations  under  the 
Act and grounds for removal from the Charities Register.2  
This letter is to advise you that, as a result of the failure to file the  Annual Returns, 
we  intend  to  remove  Te  Kaha  O  Te  Rangatahi  Incorporated  from  the  Charities 
Register  on  Wednesday  01  November  2017,  unless  we  receive  complete  Annual 
Returns for the years ending 31 March 2016 and 2017 before this date.  
Removal  from  the  Charities  Register  will  mean  that  your  charity  is  no  longer 
Released 
registered as a charitable entity under the Charities Act 2005. Further it will no longer 
be  eligible  for  tax  exemption  on  charitable  grounds  or  the  other  benefits  of 
registration.  Further  information  about  the  consequences  of  deregistration  is 
1
As required by section 41 of the Charities Act 2005.

Under section 32(1)(b) of the Charities Act 2005.

Request to remove Te Kaha O Te Rangatahi Incorporated from the Charities Register
We have received a request that Te Kaha O Te Rangatahi Incorporated (CC31970) should be 
removed from the Charities Register. Attached is a summary of the deregistraton application.
If you wish us to proceed with removing Te Kaha O Te Rangatahi Incorporated from the Register, you 
do not need to take any further action. The effective date of deregistration will be 5 November 2017 as 
requested. I encourage you to read the information below about the consequences for and obligations 
Information 
of Te Kaha O Te Rangatahi Incorporated following deregistration.
If you believe this request has been made in error, please contact Charities Services on our free 
information line 0508 242 748 before Sunday, 19 November 2017. 
Removal from the Charities Register means that Te Kaha O Te Rangatahi Incorporated will no longer 
be registered as a charitable entity with Charities Services. Further, it will no longer be eligible for 
Official 
charitable tax status or the other benefits of registration. Information will continue to be displayed on 
the Charities Register, indicating that the charity has been removed from the register voluntarily. 
A deregistered charity must no longer call itself (or imply that it is) a “registered charitable entity” and 
the 
must not display or promote its former charities registration number. If Te Kaha O Te Rangatahi 
Incorporated is an incorporated society, it must go back to filing returns with the Companies Office. 
Registered charities are eligible for charitable tax status. However, when a charity is deregistered it 
will become liable for income tax. This applies unless the charity qualifies for another tax exemption. 
For example, if a sports club is deregistered, it might instead qualify for a tax exemption as an amateur 
sports body. 
under 
Recent changes to tax legislation means that a deregistered charity may also need to pay a one-off 
tax on the accumulated assets that are held as at the date of deregistration. A deregistered charity has 
12 months to distribute those assets to another registered charity or give assets to charitable 
purposes. Assets which have not been distributed within 12 months of deregistration will be taxed.
Alternatively, if the charity re-applies and is again registered as a charity within 12 months of 
deregistration, it will not be taxed on its accumulated assets.
A deregistered charity may also lose its eligibility to provide receipts for donees to claim tax rebates.
Released 
Charities Services advises Inland Revenue and the Companies Office (for incorporated societies, 
charitable trusts, and companies) when charities are deregistered.
