皇冠体育app regulator is investigating Middlesbrough-based charity, Streets Ahead for Information, over concerns of the trustees鈥� management of conflicts of interest and payments to connected parties. 皇冠体育app inquiry will also look at if there has been any unauthorised personal benefit to trustees.聽聽

Streets Ahead for Information was established in 2006 and was registered with the Commission in 2017. 皇冠体育app charity provides an information, help and advice centre for residents of the local area.聽

皇冠体育app Commission engaged with the charity after it failed to submit its annual accounting information for the financial years ending 23 August 2020 and 2021, and it was placed into the class inquiry for charities in double default of their annual reporting requirements. Upon submission of the overdue accounts, the regulator concluded that these raised issues that required further investigation as part of a new inquiry.聽聽

皇冠体育app inquiry was subsequently opened on 16 April 2024. It will examine if the trustees have fulfilled their duties and responsibilities under charity law and if there has been any misconduct and / or mismanagement in the administration of the charity, with particular regard to:聽

• the trustees鈥� oversight and management of conflicts of interest and payments to connected parties聽聽
• whether there has been any unauthorised personal benefit聽

皇冠体育app Commission may extend the scope of the inquiry if additional regulatory issues emerge.聽

It is the Commission鈥檚 policy, after it has concluded an inquiry, to publish a report detailing the issues examined, any action taken, and the inquiry鈥檚 outcomes.
