charities which have minimal to do with saving lives wouldn’t be considered useful at all
That’s a rather… extreme attitude.
So you want a government policy which explicitly says that charities which do not directly save lives are worthless?
It would be more about informing than enforcing. There are already rules here which make registered charities show where their money goes, so a mechanism for comparing effectiveness wouldn’t be a big leap.

I submit that an official government definition of what constitutes the effectiveness of a charity would be a huge leap.
