Yes Scotland, the organisation associated with the independence campaign for the 2014 referendum, hands over its financial accounts to police after a complaint is made alleging that £1.5 million is missing. Police are assessing the complaint, which is brought by campaigners who dispute whether the group’s money has been properly accounted for. In response to the complaint, Yes Scotland says that all of its funds are accounted for and that it can substantiate its use of resources through its records. The matter is at the stage of police review, with no outcome reported by either outlet. The handover of accounts indicates that investigators are seeking further information to determine whether the allegations are supported by the organisation’s financial documentation. The agencies involved treat the issue as a complaint subject to assessment rather than a confirmed breach. The dispute centres on the accuracy and completeness of the group’s financial accounting related to its 2014 campaign activity.
