UK – Scotland

Compliance and governance in Scotland states that like the charity commission for wales and England the office of the Scottish charity regulator which is also known as the OSCR is a non-ministerial government bureau or department made to give a one door regulatory office that encompasses the registration of functions, supervision, monitoring, support, information and investigation for the Scottish charitable sector. The office of the Scottish charity regulator effectively took over the job for charitable status within the realms of Scotland from many charities registered and HMRC in the wales and England now find themselves coerce to register with the office of the Scottish charity regulator in order to accept with the changes in the legislation of Scottish that was passed since the office was made. The charitable purposes states that it should be noted that an organization that can carry out work as a registered charity under the English law is not charitable automatically under the Scottish law.
