## **STATEMENT OF RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTS The Trustees’ Responsibilities** 

The Council as Trustee is required: 

- to agree the strategic framework within which the Trust operates 

- to make arrangements for the proper administration of its financial affairs and to secure that one of its officers has the responsibility for the administration of those affairs.  In respect of the Trust, that officer is the Director of Resources for Pembrokeshire County Council

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF TENBY AND DISTRICT SWIMMING POOL TRUST 2023-24** 

I have completed the independent examination of the Financial Statements of Tenby and District Swimming Pool Trust for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activity, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and the related notes. The Financial Reporting Framework that has been applied is in accordance with appropriate accounting standards and policies. 

Prior to the review detailed research was undertaken to obtain a clear understanding of the Trusts aims and objectives. This involved review of various documents and reports including recent Internal Audit reports, particularly in relation to governance and management, were particularly relevant in providing some assurance that strong governance and management arrangements are well established and will continue to operate effectively. 

## **Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and the Independent Examiner** 

The Trustees are responsible for the preparation of Financial Statements. The Trustees have determined that for this financial year an audit is not required under Section 144(1) of the Charities Act 2011 and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is therefore my responsibility as the appointed Independent Examiner to: 

- Examine the accounts in accordance with the requirements of Section 145 of the Charities Act 

- To follow the procedures laid down in the general directions and guidance of the Charity Commission 

- To state whether particular matters have come to my attention 

## **Independent examiners statement** 

Since your charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies. 

## **Basis of Examiners Statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity Commission.  An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes careful consideration of any unusual items or possible discrepancies in the accounts and seeking explanation of such matters. 

The procedure undertaken does not provide all the evidence that would usually be required of an audit and consequently no opinion can be given on whether the accounts represent a true and fair view. 

5 



## **Independent Examiners Statement of Opinion** 

In my opinion the information contained in the Trustees Annual Report, which includes the Tenby & District Swimming Pool Trust Statement of Accounts for 2023-24 is consistent with the Financial Statements provided. 

In connection with my examination of the 2023-24 Financial Statements no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirement to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 130 of the Charities Act or to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act have not been met.

**STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **1. General** 

The purpose of the Statement is to explain the basis of the figures in the Accounts which is determined by the disclosure policies adopted and the estimation techniques used where required to reflect the economic reality of the transactions. 

The accounts shall be prepared in accordance with the latest SORP in respect of Accounting and Reporting by Charities and adhere to the relevant Statements of Standard Accounting Practice, unless otherwise stated. 

The accounting policies will be revised as required from those of the previous year to reflect changes in reporting requirements. 

## **2. Tangible Fixed Assets** 

All fixed assets are vested in Pembrokeshire County Council as Trustee. 

All expenditure on the acquisition, creation or enhancements of fixed assets shall be capitalised on an accruals basis in the accounts provided that the fixed asset yields benefits to the authority and the services it provides for a period of more than one year. Non-structural repairs and maintenance of fixed assets shall be charged directly to service revenue accounts. 

## Valuation 

Fixed asset values shall be estimated on the basis recommended by CIPFA and in accordance with the Statements of Asset Valuation Principles and Guidance Notes issued by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS). 

Land, operational property and other operational assets are included in the balance sheet at the lower of net realisable value in existing use or depreciated replacement cost. 

Assets must be revalued every 5 years as a minimum, but must be revalued more regularly where a five yearly valuation is insufficient to keep pace with material changes in Fair Value. 

The assets shall be valued by the Council’s appointed valuer who is suitably qualified. 

Any assets acquired for non-cash consideration shall be included in the balance sheet at fair value. 

## Impairment 

Fixed assets other than non-depreciable land shall be reviewed for impairment at the end of each reporting period when either: 

- No depreciation charge shall be made on the grounds it would be immaterial; or 

- The estimated remaining useful life of the fixed asset exceeds 50 years. 

## Depreciation 

Depreciation shall be provided for on all material assets with a finite useful life. 

The straight-line method of depreciation is normally used to estimate depreciation. The assets are normally valued by the Council’s Property Division. 

The transfer between Restricted Capital Funds to Unrestricted Revenue Funds of £46,864 represents the depreciation charge for 2023-24. 

8 



Asset Lives 

The remaining useful asset lives shall be estimated and, if deemed necessary, amended to reflect the amount of economic benefit remaining to be provided by tangible fixed assets. Asset lives shall be determined taking into account the number, age, obsolescence, if relevant type of construction, condition, repair and enhancement. Estimates of remaining useful life shall be made annually if deemed appropriate and each time the asset is revalued. 

## De Minimis Expenditure 

With the exception of certain minor works, expenditure of less than £10,000 shall not be capitalised normally unless specific approval is given by the issue of a specific borrowing or grant approval. 

## Enhancement Expenditure 

The value of the appropriate fixed asset shall be increased by any expenditure that enhances its value in the year. 

## **3. Loans, Investments and the Basis of Charges Made for Repaying Debt** 

Borrowing and the temporary investment of surplus funds shall be arranged as part of the County Council’s overall treasury management activity. Any surplus funds shall be invested with Pembrokeshire County Council. Any sums due in respect of loans to finance activities of the Trust shall be charged to its revenue account. 

Interest, as is appropriate, will be charged or credited to revenue account. 

## **4. Accrual of Income & Expenditure** 

Employee Costs - salaries and wages shall be charged against the periods to which they relate and if necessary estimated accruals made using previous pay periods as a basis. 

Supplies and services - a system of accruals and converted payments is operated. Creditors will be accrued by cut off payments at the end of a predetermined period of the following year and by the inclusion of estimates for significant items remaining outstanding at this time based on quotations or past costs.  An exception to this principle relates to electricity and similar quarterly payments which are charged at the date of meter reading rather than being apportioned between financial years. This policy shall be consistently applied each year and therefore does not have a material effect on any year’s accounts. Interest due but not paid shall be accrued in accordance with best practice. 

Income - normally all income due shall be accounted for at the due dates. 

## **5. Stocks** 

Stocks will be valued in accordance with the SORP at the lower of cost or net realisable value. 

## **6. Debtors** 

Debtors will be reviewed periodically throughout each year and a bad debts provision established if deemed appropriate. 

## **7. Reserves** 

A Capital Development Fund shall be maintained for major repairs and replacements of fixed assets. Additional contributions from operating surpluses shall be appropriated to the Capital Development Fund. 

9 



## **8.         Budget Surplus/Deficit** 

A balanced budget shall be set each year and budget monitoring measures put in place to ensure potential deficits are detected early and action planned to regularise the position. 

## **9. Group Accounts** 

Since 2014-15 Tenby Trust Accounts have been consolidated into Pembrokeshire County Council’s Statement of Accounts in accordance with the Code.

Tenby and District Swimming Pool Trust 

## 2023/24 

Forward 

By the Leisure Services Manager 

I am delighted to present this introduction to the annual report for Tenby Swimming Pool Trust. The pool continues to be a huge asset to the community and attracts users of all ages (with the oldest current regular participant 90 years young). As the pool crosses it’s 50[th] birthday it’s contribution to the health and wellbeing of the people of Tenby and it’s surrounding communities cannot be questioned. 

I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the swimming pool staff, who have performed their duties excellently and delivered exceptional customer service in the last 12 months. The facility’s success in the past year is a testament to their passion, professionalism and commitment. 

The facility recorded 64,288 visits for the 23/24 period. Over 350 children attend the “Learn To Swim” community programme, whilst the pool provided swimming lessons to 10 local primary schools. Over 500 school children received tuition over the academic year, with 85% of year 6 pupils achieving the Swim Wales national curriculum gold standard. This is a fantastic accomplishment by everyone involved in this vital provision. 

The financial situation of the trust remains a priority. As is highlighted in the main body of  the report the overall subsidy increased over the past 12 months, however, this was caused by a significant increase in utility costs (136%) which were offset to a considerable part by income growth (17%). 

As mentioned in last year’s report, the facility structure is an ongoing concern. Two feasibility studies have been completed, which have confirmed that the pool is structurally safe for operation (although remedial work is needed to keep this situation). An estimated cost for a replacement pool (on the available footprint of the facility) has also been determined. A final intrusive survey of the facility is currently being organised in order for an options paper to be prepared which will establish whether a refurbishment or complete replacement of the facility are the best solution. 

Whilst there have and continue to be challenges associated to the swimming pool I am optimistic that as a community facility we will continue to serve our users in an effective and efficient manner throughout the year ahead.
