PAUL LOCKYER: The questions about where charity dollars end up, which we looked at earlier in the program, isn't confined to the tsunami relief effort.

Controversy surrounds a charity event happening here in Australia with the guest speaker Cherie Blair, the wife of the British Prime Minister.

The event is to raise funds for the Children's Cancer Institute of Australia. Such glamour events are held in the hope of attracting big donors. But at least one charity has hit out at the promoters of such events.
