(2)Subsection (1)(a) does not apply to a charitable appeal which—
being (in each case) land which is enclosed or substantially enclosed (whether by any wall or building or otherwise); or
(c)is an appeal to members of the public to give money or other property by placing it in an unattended receptacle;
and for the purposes of paragraph (c) above a receptacle is unattended if it is not in the possession or custody of a person acting as a collector.
(3)In this Part, in relation to a public charitable collection—

(b)“collector” means any person by whom that appeal is made (whether made by him alone or with others and whether made by him for remuneration or otherwise);

(6)The functions exercisable under this Part by a local authority shall be exercisable—
and references in this Part to a local authority or to the area of a local authority shall be construed accordingly.
(7)It is hereby declared that an appeal to members of the public (other than one falling within subsection (2)) is a public charitable collection for the purposes of this Part if—
(a)it consists in or includes the making of an offer to sell goods or to supply services, or the exposing of goods for sale, to members of the public, and
(b)it is made as mentioned in sub-paragraph (i) or (ii) of subsection (1)(a) and in association with a representation that the whole or any part of its proceeds is to be applied for charitable, benevolent or philanthropic purposes.
