4 REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE OF MANAGEMENT The Committee present their report together with the financial statements for the year ended 31 March MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE S RESPONSIBILITIES The Committee is required by law to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Association as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit for that period. The Committee confirms that suitable accounting policies have been used and applied consistently and reasonable and prudent judgements and estimates have been made in the preparation of the financial statements for the year ended 31 March The Committee also confirms that applicable accounting standards have been followed and that the financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. The Committee is responsible for keeping proper accounting records, for safeguarding the assets of the Association and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES The Association is a registered non-profit making housing association providing housing accommodation for those in need.

5 REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE OF MANAGEMENT (continued) INTERNAL CONTROLS The Committee of Management is responsible for the Association s system of internal controls and for reviewing its effectiveness. Such a system is designed to manage and reduce, rather than to eliminate, the risk of failure to achieve business objectives. It can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss. We operate ongoing processes for identifying, evaluating and managing the significant risks faced by the Association. They have been in place for the year to 31 March 2016 and up to the date of the approval of the Annual Report and the Financial Statements. The processes are reviewed at least annually by the Committee. The key elements of the control system in operation are: The Committee of Management has adopted a formal schedule of matters reserved for its approval ensuring it maintains responsibility for overall strategy, approval of all property transactions and other major capital expenditure projects. There is an organisation structure with clearly defined lines of responsibility and delegation of authority. Detailed budgets are prepared covering the Association s business which are reviewed and approved by the Committee of Management. Actual results are compared against budget and appropriate action identified and initiated. AUDITORS Crawford Sedgwick & Co has merged with ASM Chartered Accountants and this newly merged practice has indicated a willingness to continue in office. A resolution concerning their appointment will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting. By order of the Committee Mrs V McKay Secretary - 4 -

6 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS We have audited the financial statements of Covenanter Residential Association Limited for the year ended 31 March 2016 which comprises the statement of comprehensive income, the statement of financial position, the statement of cash flows and the related notes. These financial statements have been prepared under the accounting policies set out therein. This report is made solely to the Association s members, as a body, in accordance with Section 43 of the Industrial and Provident Societies (Northern Ireland) Acts 1969 to 2006 and the Registered Housing Associations (Accounting Requirements) Order (Northern Ireland) Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Association s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Association and the Association s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE COMMITTEE OF MANAGEMENT AND THE AUDITORS As described more fully in the report of the Committee of Management, the Association s Committee of Management is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), and for being satisfied they give a true and fair view. It is our responsibility to audit and express an opinion on the financial statements in accordance with relevant legal and regulatory requirements and International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Those standards require us to comply with the Auditing Practices Board s Ethical Standard for Auditors. We report to you our opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view and are properly prepared in accordance with applicable law. We also report to you if, in our opinion, the report of the Committee of Management is not consistent with the financial statements, if the Association has not kept proper accounting records, if we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit, or if information specified by law regarding board members remuneration and transactions with the Association is not disclosed. We review whether the statement on page 3 reflects the Association s compliance with the Department for Social Development s Code of Practice ( the Code ) and we report whether the Committee of Management has provided the disclosures required by the Code and whether the statement is not consistent with the information of which we are aware from our audit of the financial statements. We are not required to form an opinion on the effectiveness of the Association s system of internal control. SCOPE OF THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS An audit involves obtaining evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements sufficient to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error. This includes an assessment of whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the Association s circumstances and have been consistently applied and adequately disclosed; the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the Committee; and the overall presentation of the financial statements. In addition, we read all the financial and non-financial information in the financial statements to identify material inconsistencies with the audited financial statements and to identify any information that is apparently materially incorrect based on, or materially consistent with, the knowledge acquired by us in the course of performing the audit. If we become aware of any apparent misstatements or inconsistencies we consider the implications for our report

7 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS (continued) OPINION In our opinion the financial statements: give a true and fair view, in accordance with UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, of the state of the Association s affairs at 31 March 2016 and of its deficit and cash flows for the year then ended; have been properly prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Industrial and Provident Societies Acts (Northern Ireland) 1969 to 2006 and the Registered Housing Associations (Accounting Requirements) Order (Northern Ireland) 1993; and the information given in the Report of the Committee of Management is consistent with the financial statements. MATTERS ON WHICH WE ARE REQUIRED TO REPORT BY EXCEPTION We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Industrial Provident Societies Acts 1969 to 2006 require us to report to you if, in our opinion: a satisfactory system of control over transactions has not been maintained; or the Association has not kept proper accounting records; or the financial statements are not in agreement with the books of account; or we have not received all the information and explanations we need for our audit. 20 Rosemary Street B Clerkin (Senior Statutory Auditor) Belfast For and on behalf of BT1 1QD ASM (B) Ltd Chartered Accountants & Statutory Auditor (date) - 6 -

13 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Statement of compliance These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Housing SORP 2014: Statement of Recommended Practice for social housing providers issued by the National Housing Federation. 2. Accounting policies Basis of accounting The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through profit or loss. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity. Transition to FRS 102 The entity transitioned from previous UK GAAP to FRS 102 as at 1st April Details of how FRS 102 has affected the reported financial position and financial performance is given in note 23. Revenue recognition Turnover comprises income receivable from lettings and service charges, fees receivable, grants and other income. Income tax The Association is accepted as a charity by the HMRC. Income and capital gains of the Association are generally exempt from tax if applied for charitable purposes. Value Added Tax The Association is not registered for VAT. All of its income, including rental receipts, is exempt for VAT purposes. Operating leases Rentals applicable to operating leases where substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership remain with the lessor are charged against profits as incurred. Tangible assets Housing Stock Housing properties are properties held for the provision of social housing or to otherwise provide social benefit. Housing properties are principally available for rent and are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes the cost of acquiring land and buildings, development costs, interest charges incurred during the development period. Works to existing properties which replace a component that has been treated separately for depreciation purposes, along with those works that result in an increase in net rental income over the lives of the properties, thereby enhancing the economic benefits of the assets, are capitalised as improvements

14 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2. Accounting policies (continued) Depreciation of Housing Properties The Association separately identifies the major components which comprise its housing properties, and charges depreciation, so as to write-down the cost of each component to its estimated residual value, on a straight line basis, over its estimated useful life. The Association depreciates the major components of its housing properties at the following annual rates: Land - Not depreciated Structure/main fabric - Over 100 years Roof - Over 60 years Windows and doors - Over 30 years Primary heating unit - Over 14 years Kitchen - Over 20 years Bathroom - Over 30 years Mechanical systems - Over 30 years Electrics - Over 40 years Lifts - Over 20 years Depreciation of other fixed assets For other tangible fixed assets, depreciation is charged on a straight-line basis over the expected useful lives of the assets to write off the cost, less estimated residual values over the following expected lives: Leasehold building - 2% Office furniture and equipment - 20% Impairment Annually housing properties are assessed for impairment indicators. Where indicators are identified an assessment for impairment is undertaken comparing the asset s carrying amount to its recoverable amount. Where the carrying amount of an asset is deemed to exceed its recoverable amount, the asset is written down to its recoverable amount, this is likely to be the fair value in use of the asset based on its service potential. The resulting impairment loss is recognised as expenditure in income and expenditure. Where an asset is currently deemed not to be providing service potential to the association, its recoverable amount is its fair value less costs to sell. Other assets are reviewed for impairment if there is an indication that impairment may have occurred

15 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2. Accounting policies (continued) Tenants Services Fund For certain schemes the Association is required to charge to the tenants an additional amount to fund the costs of common facilities. Annual surpluses and deficits are transferred to the tenants services fund to equalise the financial position over the lifetime of the scheme. Government and other grants Social housing grant (SHG) or HAG (Housing association grant) is receivable from the Northern Ireland Housing Executive (NIHE) and is recognised in income over the useful life of the housing property structure under the accruals model. HAG due or received in advance is included as a current asset or liability. HAG received in respect of revenue expenditure is credited to the income and expenditure account in the same period as the expenditure to which it relates. HAG released on sale of a property may be repayable but is normally available to be recycled and is credited to a the Disposal Proceeds Fund (DPF) and included in the statement of financial position in creditors. Finance leases and hire purchase contracts Assets held under finance leases and hire purchase contracts are recognised in the statement of financial position as assets and liabilities at the lower of the fair value of the assets and the present value of the minimum lease payments, which is determined at the inception of the lease term. Any initial direct costs of the lease are added to the amount recognised as an asset. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the outstanding lease liability using the effective interest method. Finance charges are allocated to each period so as to produce a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Defined benefit plans The Association participates in an industry-wide defined benefit salary pension scheme through the Northern Ireland Local Government Officers Superannuation Committee. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the Association. Pension scheme liabilities are measured on an actuarial basis using a projected unit method and are discounted to their present value. Pension scheme assets are valued at market value at the balance sheet date

16 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2. Accounting policies (continued) Financial instruments Financial instruments which meet the criteria of a basic financial instrument as defined in Section 11 of FRS 102 are accounted for under an amortised historical cost model. Non-basic financial instruments are recognised at fair value using a valuation technique with any gains or losses being reported in surplus or deficit. The Association classifies certain lease and leaseback leases as basic financial instruments whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the leased asset to the group. Assets held as basic financial instruments are recognised initially at the fair value of the associated asset (or, if lower, the present value of minimum future payments) at the inception of the arrangement. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the statement of financial position as a loan obligation. Payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease obligation using the effective interest method so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are deducted in measuring profit or loss. Assets held under basic financial instruments are included in tangible fixed assets and depreciated and assessed for impairment losses in the same way as owned assets. Direct costs incurred in connection with the issue of a basic financial instrument are deducted from the proceeds of the issue, and amortised over the life of the instrument

COMMON FUND A bequest was received from the Executors of Mr Desmond J Shaw (deceased) in The monies are to be used by the Association as it thinks fit. There are no restrictions placed on its use. 22. CAPITAL COMMITMENTS There are capital commitments amounting to Nil which have been authorised but not contracted for (2015: Nil). 23. FRS 102 DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION The Association has not complied with the accounting requirements of FRS 102 for defined benefit plans. Under FRS 102, the Association is obliged to obtain a report from a qualified actuary which gives a report on the Association s pension commitment. The Association would then be required to incorporate any identified surplus or deficit within its accounts and to disclose the assumptions underpinning the calculation of the surplus or deficit. The scheme includes one part-time current employee and one past employee.
