NR
Not rated — Statutory regulator — not the kind of entity this scorecard measures

This entity is registered as a charity for tax purposes but functions as a statutory regulator of a profession (e.g. Pharmacy Council, Nursing Council, Medical Council, Teaching Council). Its purpose is licensure, inspection, and discipline — not the delivery of programs to public beneficiaries. The standard charity rating template (program-vs-administration split, fundraising efficiency, donor reserves) doesn't apply, so a letter grade is withheld rather than misrepresenting the entity's function.
