The four-line truth

Lines are separate lifecycle measures and are never summed: committed = donor-published lifetime award totals; awaiting = latest-FY statutory 'approved for future payment' balance; deployed = disclosed paid amounts (withheld-amount gifts counted separately). Absence of events is absence of loaded evidence, not zero giving.

England & Wales charities may withhold recipient names on materiality or serious prejudice grounds, and a charitable trust may withhold recipients and amounts entirely while the settlor lives (Charities Act 2011 s.132(4)).

Voluntary points reward disclosure the donor chose — publishing an open grants database, and naming recipients. Compelled points reflect how completely and how currently their statutory filings land. The split exists because disclosure regimes differ by jurisdiction: a high compelled score is law-abiding, not generous, and a low one may reflect a rule the donor did not write.

Extracted from the charity's own filed accounts and independently re-read; every note reconciles (named + aggregate = the printed total). A note with no named recipients is a disclosure outcome, not an absence of giving: SORP Module 16 lets a charity withhold names on immateriality or serious prejudice, and Charities Act 2011 s.132(4) lets an England & Wales charitable trustwithhold recipients and amounts entirely while the settlor is alive.
