THE BASIC SKILLS AGENCY
This charity is no longer on the register, removed on 3 July 2009. A removal is usually a charity that wound up, merged, or fell below the income threshold, and is not in itself a finding against anyone — but an appeal still quoting this number today is quoting a charity the Commission no longer registers.
