As such its governing document is its Memorandum and Articles of Association. It is affiliated to the holder of the Irish Draught studbook of origin in Ireland, currently Horse Sport Ireland.

THE IRISH DRAUGHT HORSE SOCIETY (GREAT BRITAIN)

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS - continued for the Year Ended 31 December 2022

Following the receipt of 6 nominations for Council in January to fill 5 vacancies, a ballot was held in March and the new Council comprising 15 members met on 3 April to elect its Officers for the ensuing year. James Noblett and Heather Chaplin were elected unanimously as Chair and Vice Chair, and Brian Gates elected unanimously to continue as Company Secretary. The new Council approved the recommendations following the review of the working structure of the Council, viz initially six working sub groups each with their own specific terms of reference and accountable for their defined areas of responsibility were set up; meetings would be recorded and recommendations would be subject to full Council approval prior to implementation. It was considered that this way of working would be more business-like and make the best use of directors’ skills, knowledge, time and experience. Throughout the year the main Council and sub groups held regular monthly meetings by Zoom to develop policies and initiatives.

The Society is a founder member of The Showing Council, an umbrella organisation set up in 2006 to represent the horse showing sector on the British Equestrian Federation.

The Society is also a member of the 826 Equine Studbooks Association which was set up in 2018 to represent the views and interests of studbook PIOs to government, DEFRA and the wider world.

REVIEW OF MAIN ACTIVITIES

Negotiations to renew the contract to continue to hold the Annual Breed at Arena UK were sadly financially unacceptable. A new contract was subsequently negotiated with Onley Grounds Equestrian Complex near Rugby in Warwickshire where a two day Show took place on 13[th] and 14[th] August. The IDHS(GB) Ridden £2000 Challenge and Moorbennhall ID Youngstock Challenge semi-finals and finals for exhibits qualifying at County and Agricultural Shows affiliating to the Society were reinstated after being suspended due to COVID-19. Near record entries were received but on 9[th] August a heatwave began and an amber extreme heat weather warning for most of England and Wales was put in place as well as a level 3 heat health alert for central and southern England. It was touch and go as to whether the Show should proceed or be cancelled and in the end it was left to the exhibitors to make their own decisions. Additional welfare facilities were provided at the Show for those who decided to make the journey and compete in exceptional conditions and there were sufficient entries in most classes for the Show to be a success. The Society wishes to say a huge “thank you” to the new recruits who joined the Show Team in 2022 and are continuing to take active roles in 2023. We also give special “thanks” to our valued sponsors who contributed record donations this year.

There were around 100 expressions of interest for mare inspections of which 75 came forward for grading at 15 venues covering England, Scotland and Wales. 49 mares achieved Class 1 with two mares attaining a Bronze Merit in conformation and movement. 25 mares passed the vet but did not meet all of the inspection standards so they were classified as Class 2.

The Society continues to be indebted to the Hornby Lonsdale Trust for providing funds to promote the Hornby Premium Brood Mare scheme, devised to identify and recognise those exceptional mares in the breeding herd that conform to the Breed Standard and type. The scheme was developed to encourage mare owners to breed back to registered Irish Draught stallions to produce pure Irish Draught foals and increase the number of mares and potential stallions in the breeding herd. Eight Class 1 or RID mares, with a foal at foot by a Class 1 or RID stallion, were awarded Hornby Premiums this year.

The stallion inspections took place at Moreton Morrell on 1[st] and 2[nd] September where 10 stallions came forward. Of the nine stallions completing their inspection, four met the required veterinary and inspection standards for Class 1. Five stallions passed the vet but did not meet all of the inspection standards so they were classified as Class 2. Once again the Society is indebted to the late Bernard Symonds and Mrs Pam Symonds for their generous support through the BLS Awards presented to the three British bred Class 1 stallions. Thank you also to Horse Sport Ireland who kindly provided sashes and rosettes for the Irish bred horses which achieved Class 1.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS - continued for the Year Ended 31 December 2022

PUBLICATIONS AND PUBLICITY

The website continues to play a major part in the day to day running of the Society by providing a knowledge base and disseminating information 24/7 to members and non-members on how to secure online services and their associated costs.

Electronic editions of the News Sheet were circulated to members in June and December, keeping members informed on Society news and general equine matters in addition to the website.

Due to unforeseen circumstances the publication of the 2022 Yearbook scheduled for December was delayed. Every endeavour is being made to complete this prestigious publication and distribute to all paid up members as early as possible in the New Year.

ADMINISTRATION

Passport administration, including the registration and issuing of horse passports, over-stamping and transfers of ownership, undertaken on behalf of the Society by Pedigree Livestock Services Ltd since October 2021, has increased by 50% during the year and members have benefited from the improved service through day to day access from Monday to Friday between 9 00am and 5 00pm.

Further administrative duties were transferred to the PLS office during the year to ease the heavy burden on our Administrator, Carol Malin. Following a review by the Governance and Finance Group, Council decided to outsource the paid administrative operations in order to provide an improved service to the members equal to that provided for passport administration. Subsequently an agreement was reached with PLS for them to undertake these additional duties from December 2022. By mutual agreement Carol Malin accepted a redundancy package and her employment was terminated after 16 years of service.

FINANCE

Turnover for the year was up by around 10% on the previous year. This was mainly attributable to increases in membership subscriptions (13%) and registration and associated passport fees (50%).

There was a reduction in income from horse inspections (13%) and sundry income (30%). A challenging year with unforeseen, not to mention unprecedented, soaring fuel costs and cost of living expenses, saw a rise in the overall running costs of 16%. In particular this had a major impact on the cost of horse inspections with an overall loss in the region of £5,000.

Although the Breed Show was a huge success at the new venue, despite substantial sponsorship, it barely broke even. Historically the Show has contributed a surplus of several thousand pounds for a considerable number of years.

The other extraordinary one-off charge included within the overall running costs was the payment to Carol Malin to terminate her employment.

Despite these financial setbacks, the overall deficit for the year is £6,117. Modest increases have been applied to membership subscriptions and registration fees from 1[st] January 2023. Inspection fees have been adjusted to reflect the increases experienced in the past twelve months and those forecast for 2023. With modest cost savings, major benefits encompassed within the new administration process and strict financial controls, the Society is in a strong position to recover during the next financial period.

RESERVES

The continued policy of the Society regarding reserves is to maintain a modest sum from which to finance any shortfall in income pending remedial action or to finance approved capital projects.

PUBLIC BENEFIT

The Society provides information on all aspects of the Irish Draught horse, both to members of the Society and non-members. Advice can be sort by telephone, email, website or by visiting the Breed Stand at shows and events.

FUTURE PLANS

The continued development of the Council sub-groups to include non-Council members with relevant expertise will enable the Society to provide additional services and advice to Members and improve its efficiency. An example of this is the reorganisation of the Show Affiliation process to reach out to a wider audience and capture more potential competitors and income for the various challenges at the National Show (formerly Breed Show).

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF THE IRISH DRAUGHT HORSE SOCIETY (GREAT BRITAIN)

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of The Irish Draught Horse Society (Great Britain) for the year ended 31 December 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, Statement of Financial Position and the related notes. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where:

Other information

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinion on other matter prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:

Page 6

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF THE IRISH DRAUGHT HORSE SOCIETY (GREAT BRITAIN)

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Directors.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of directors

As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page four, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

In our process of identifying fraud risks we assessed events or conditions that indicate an incentive or pressure to commit fraud or provide an opportunity to commit fraud ("fraud risk factors") to determine how fraud risks are relevant to our audit. Based on the auditing standards we addressed two fraud risks that were relevant to our audit, in relation to revenue recognition and management override of controls. Based upon our analysis of fraud risk factors, we have not identified any additional fraud risks.

Our audit procedures included an evaluation of the design, implementation as well as the operating effectiveness of internal controls relevant to mitigate these risks. We also performed substantive audit procedures, including detailed testing of journal entries and procedures to satisfy ourselves that revenue has been properly recognised in the financial statements in accordance with financial reporting standards and the charitable company's accounting policies. Through these procedures, we did not identify any material actual or suspected incidences of fraud.

We have evaluated facts and circumstances in order to assess laws and regulations relevant to the charitable company. We identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statements through discussion with the Directors (as required by auditing standards) and discussed with the Directors the policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulations. We communicated identified laws and regulations throughout our team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit.
