A spokesman for Chabad Lubavitch UK explained: “In the past year we have changed auditors. Chabad Lubavitch UK is a complex organisation and it has taken longer to get up to speed than expected. Lubavitch has submitted its annual accounts since the charity's inception, albeit late, and we are working together with the charity commission to correct this."
The auditors were now busy with the 2015 audit, he said. “Work on the 2016 accounts are well in hand and simultaneously measures are in place to bring 2017 up to pace.”
In 2014, the charity received nearly £8,750,000 in income, up by around £1 million from the previous year. Its network encompasses 26 affiliated Chabad Houses in communities and campuses around the country as well as schools and other educational and religious activities.
