The Charity Commission has appointed an Interim Manager to The Central Gurdwara (British Isles) London Khalsa Jatha<\/a>. The appointment comes as part of the regulator\u2019s inquiry into the charity, which began in July 2015.<\/p>\n

The inquiry is examining a range of concerns, including the trustees\u2019 failure to comply with a previous action plan set by the Commission, and concerns about potential unauthorised trustee benefit and unmanaged conflicts of interest. A statement about the investigation is available on GOV.UK<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Commission has now appointed Tom Murdoch of Stone King as Interim Manager of the charity. His task is limited to determining the membership of the charity. The charity\u2019s trustees remain responsible for the day-to-day management of the charity, including its financial management.<\/p>\n

The Interim Manager was appointed on 26 January 2016.<\/p>\n

The Commission\u2019s investigation continues. It is the Commission\u2019s policy, after it has concluded an inquiry, to publish a report detailing what issues the inquiry looked at, what actions were undertaken as part of the inquiry and what the outcomes were. Reports of previous inquiries<\/a> are available on GOV.UK.<\/p>\n

The charity\u2019s registered number is 258324.<\/p>\n
