Charity Finance Group Katherine Smithson Policy and public affairs officer Charity SORP Exposure Draft: Feedback on the consultation process 35. Charity Finance Group (CFG) Membership organisation with over 2200 members, all responsible for financial management in charities Inspiring financial leadership Promoting best practice and ensuring a proportionate and effective regulatory environment 36. Getting charity views on the SORP consultation SORP briefing events Printed copy of the SORP for all CFG member charities CFG briefing paper with questions for charities on what they want reflected in the SORP Consultation events across the country with the Charity Commission CFG Technical Accounting Forum 37. Technical Accounting Forum A group of CFG members and auditors from professional firms Chaired by CFG member Rui Domingues, Friends of the Elderly During the SORP consultation there was a huge increase in numbers of CFG members engaging in the forum The forum met twice and helped to develop our response by email 38. What were the things we couldnt change? New UK GAAP FRS 102Treatment of repayment agreements for multiemployer defined benefit pension schemes Income recognition is based on probable not almost certain Income will include unrealised investment gains Staff remuneration disclosures Valuing volunteer time and donated goods There is a charity concession on the latter point 39. What were the hot topics and key issues for charities? 40. FRSSE: To include or not to include? Pros: Vast majority of the sector is technically able to follow the FRSSE Keeping it will enable many charities to keep their current accounting policies Easier for smaller charities to adapt to new SORP No cash flow statements required Cons: Based on old UK GAAP and fast becoming outdated Has not been consulted on as a whole standard little assurance that it is fit for purpose for charities Developments elsewhere BIS consultation following EU DirectiveLikely to be FRC consultation on FRSSE in near future 41. FRSSE days are numberedBut; CFG has proposed that the option to apply the FRSSE is maintained in the new SORP, why? Dis-applying the FRSSE would impact most on the smallest charities 42. Income recognition Now based on probability, entitlement, and measurement Previously based on virtual certainty Not too much difference expected from this change 43. Treatment of legacy income has always been inconsistent across the sector We asked charities Do we base these criteria on legal events such as probate, notification by the executor?Do we leave it to judgement of individual charities based on principled approach?They said All sorts of different things! 44. Grants Should charities be disclosing a list of all their grants in the notes to the accounts?What charities told us This will probably take up a lot of space! Detract from other activities Against cutting clutter? Already make available elsewhere CFG has taken this view in our response as long as the information is made available elsewhere 45. Salaries Charities already disclose number of individuals in salary bands increasing by 10,000 above 60,000 FRS 102 introduces concept of key management personnel and asks for more information on the salaries of these individuals SORP ED proposed that charities disclose the salary and job title of top paid employeeDrive to increase transparency But, fairly arbitrary informationCFG has taken the view that the current treatment is actually more useful to the user of the accounts and should suffice but could recommend: Disclosure of remuneration policyMore detailed information on salaries if it supports user to understand staff costs 46. SoFA 47. What we said Charities want to keep the columnar formatCosts of managing investments should be separated when materialRemove words like cost 48. Other areas covered Treatment of grants matching and performance based approaches Social investments How do we treat Mixed Motive Investments? Groups and branches Presentation Performance reporting Keep it simple! 49. Contact details: [email protected] 0207 250 8347 50. Questions Barber Harrison & Platt 2013. All rights reserved. 51.

How was this used? In combination with well-being data and an assessment of the process To highlight that interventions with certain beneficiaries will not necessarily save money in the short term To support the case for further data collection We knew that we wanted a really strong economic evaluation of the MEAM pilots and we knew what we wanted to measure; it is attracting a lot of positive interest from across the sectors in which we work.
