论公开募捐方案备案的法律性质

ON THE LEGAL NATURE OF THE RECORD OF PUBLIC FUND-RAISING SCHEME

在慈善募捐活动中,募捐过程不公开、信息不透明导致的诈捐、骗捐等事件层出不穷,这些事件使我国慈善事业陷入低谷。公开募捐方案作为慈善组织与社会公众信息沟通的桥梁,对提高慈善组织的公信力和公募活动的透明度,具有至关重要的作用。2016年颁布的《中华人民共和国慈善法》明文规定,慈善组织进行公开募捐需取得募捐资格,并应向相关部门备案公开募捐方案。公开募捐方案的备案是行政备案,本质上是一种行政确认行为,经过备案的公开募捐方案便有了公示公信的法律效果。通过公开募捐方案,有利于保障公众的知情权,也有利于对公开募捐活动进行有效监督,最终有利于公开募捐活动顺利进行。

Charitable fund-raising campaigns, without information disclosure, often lead to fraudulent donation, which get Chinese charities into credibility crisis. The public fund-raising scheme bridges such an information gap between charitable organizations and the public, thus playing a vital role in improving the credibility of charitable organizations and raising the transparency of public fund-raising campaigns. The Charity Law, promulgated in 2016, stipulates that charitable organizations shall qualify for public fund-raising and put public fund-raising scheme on record with relevant departments. This is an administrative record, which is essentially a kind of administrative confirmation. By making such a record confirmation, the public fund-raising scheme has its legal effect and credibility. By disclosing public fund-raising scheme, the public right to learn the truth is ensured, and effective supervision is guaranteed so as to ensure the success of public fund-raising.
