## COMMUNITY HOUSING CYMRU REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022 

Community Housing Cymru (CHC) is the representative body for housing associations and community mutuals in Wales, which are all not-for-profit organisations. We are proud to represent our members who provide homes and services to 10% of the Welsh population. .

## COMMUNITY HOUSING CYMRU REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES : FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022 

## Risk Management 

The Trustees have conducted a review of the major risks to which the charity is exposed. The risk register is regularly reviewed and updated and where appropriate, systems and/or procedures have been established to mitigate the risks the charity faces. Internal control risks are minimized by the implementation of procedures for authorisation of all transactions and tasks. 

## Covid-19 impact 

The effect of the Covid-19 pandemic has impacted the organisation and operations. Whilst no one was furloughed due to a high volume of workload and the in-house transferrable skills of staff, there was increased pressure on staff. We have continued to work remotely as our default position throughout the year, and are currently reviewing our future working arrangements for staff. With the end of our 10 year lease in June 2022, we will be reflecting on our experiences of working remotely and consulting with staff and members about future ways of working including whether we need a permanent office base. 

. 

The trustees are also satisfied that there are no other material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. _- 

The Trustees are therefore of the opinion that the charity will have sufficient resources to meet its liabilities as they fall due. 

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

## REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF COMMUNITY HOUSING CYMRU 

## Opinion 

We have audited the financial statements of Community Housing Cymru (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Statement of Financial Position, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’. 

- In our opinion the financial statements: 

- give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 March 2022 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended; 

- - have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’; and 

- - have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. 

## 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. Ce, 

Conclusions relating to going concern In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. 

## Other information 

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon. 

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, 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 we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. 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. 

## Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 

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

- the information given in the Report of the Trustees for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and 

- the Report of the Trustees has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. 

## Matters on which we are required to report by exception 

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

- 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: - adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or 

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns: or 

- - certain disclosures of trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or - we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or - the trustees were not entitled to take advantage of the small companies exemption from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report or in preparing the Report of the Trustees.

Our 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 Independent 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. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below: Extent to which-the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud We identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error, and then, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, including obtaining audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. | . We discussed our audit independence complying with the Revised Ethical Standard 2019 with the engagement team members waitst planning the audit and continually monitored our independence throughout the process. Identifying and assessing potential risks related to irregularities. In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following: - identifying, evaluating and complying ‘with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance; - detecting] and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual. suspected or alleged fraud; - the internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations; - discussing among the engagement team how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements and any potential indicators of fraud. - obtaining an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the Charity operates in, focusing on those laws and regulations that had a direct effect on the financial statements or that had a fundamental effect on the operations of the Charity, The key laws and regulations we considered in this context included the UK Companies Act and relevant tax legislation. Audit response to risks identified In addition to the above, our procedures to respond to risks identified included the following: - reviewing the financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with relevant laws and regulations; - enquiring of management concerning actual and potential litigation and claims; performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud; - reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; - in addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, testing the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments; - assessing whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias; and - evaluating the operational rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of operations. . We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members and remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit.

Defined benefit schemes are funded, with the assets of the scheme held separately from those of the charity, in separate trustee administered funds. Pension scheme assets are measured at fair value and liabilities are measured on an actuarial basis using the projected unit method and discounted at a rate equivalent to the current rate of return on a high quality corporate bond of equivalent currency and term to the scheme liabilities. The actuarial valuations are obtained at least triennially and are updated at each balance. sheet date. The resulting defined benefit asset or liability, net of the related deferred tax, is presented separately after other net assets on the face of the balance sheet.

## CONTINGENT LIABILITIES 

: 

) 

The charity has been notified by the Pensions Trust of the estimated employer debt on withdrawal from the Pension Plan, based on the financial position of the scheme as at 30 September 2021. As of this date, the employer debt for the charity was £3,100,623. The charity currently has no intention of withdrawing from the Plan. 

We have been notified by the Trustee of the Scheme that it has performed a review of the changes made to the Scheme's benefits over the years and the result is that there is uncertainty surrounding some of these changes. The Trustee has been advised to seek clarification from the Court on these items. This process is ongoing and the matter is unlikely to be resolved before the end of 2024 at the earliest. It is recognised that this could potentially impact the value of Scheme liabilities, but until Court directions are received, it is not possible to calculate the impact of this issue, particularly on an individual employer basis, with any accuracy at this time. No adjustment has been made in these financial statements in respect of this potential issue.

During ithe year the Charity was gift-aided a donation of £7,543 (2021: £38,843) from its subsidiary, Community Housing Cymru Policy and Research Limited. 

At the year end there was a balance owed to Community Housing Cymru of £67,079 (2021: £58,036) from its subsidiary company. 

| 

## 21. ULTIMATE CONTROLLING PARTY | 

The trustees consider there to be no ultimate controlling party. 

## 22. SHARE CAPITAL
