## **Secretary’s Report for Year Ending 31st July 2021**
## Overview
Assessments have gradually started to pick up again following the Covid-19 lockdown. The total number of assessments for August 2020 to July 2021 was 521, a considerable increase from 304 in 2019 to 2020, however still down on 675 from 2018 to 2019. Pesticide assessments were 80% of assessments taken with chainsaw assessments dropping to 15%. We have seen an increase to 5% in ‘Other’ Assessments (Vehicles). Total income for the year has risen to £56,741 from £41,411 in 2020.
The time for Certificates being produced and sent out by City & Guilds has been significantly impacted this year. The main reason being resource and a slow return to the office for the C & G Team.
## Assessments
The test tracking spreadsheet circulated with this report shows the total number of assessments over the year along with the breakdown by category. As previously mentioned, training and assessments has seen an improvement this year. The overall pass rate for assessments that have taken place was 95%.
## Finance
This year the accounts show a profit of £4. The income from the Investment account was £3 of interest received. The draft accounts were submited to the commitee at the AGM. The draft accounts show a debtors amount of £6,761; this was due to timing of payments; these payments were received in full during August.
Cash flow has been good with regular communication and good working relationships being maintained with the training provider finance teams.
The commitee’s accounts continue to be maintained under one roof at the Santander bank. The Community Account provides a current account and the 30-notice account (now called a Treasurer Account). The Chairman, Secretary and Mr. A. East are joint signatories.
## City and Guilds Audit
An external audit by City and Guilds took place on 4[th] December 2020 where the centre remained at LOW risk. There were four actions put in place which have all been completed or are ongoing: -
- Externally audited assessments - QA to continue to support, standardise and provide feedback comments on sampling. Ensure QA is included on SSRA and remove candidate phone numbers in line with GDPR.
- Ensure Training Providers are reminded of facility and administration arrangements for online assessments i.e., Hartpury & RAU PA1 evolve assessments by circulating the most up to date JCQ ICE 2020-2021 requirements.
- Send QA Sampling plan for outstanding assessor observations.
- Send writen feedback to assessors on their paperwork following sampling.
- A date for the next audit is to be confirmed.
## Reserves Policy
The Commitee now has £26,269 in reserve which is slightly above the target of £25,000. This provides cover for bad debt (around £15,000 is owed by Debtors at any one time). It had previously been agreed by the trustees that following a risk assessment, Trustee Liability insurance was not required, however, it was decided to keep some money in reserve should professional advice be required.
## Assessors
All Assessors continue to work well with the CPTC, responding flexibly to the demands made. Paperwork continues to be completed well and returned in time.
We have worked with some new assessors linked with CITG and West Berks & Oxon training providers. This has worked well.
## Development
City and Guilds continues to expand their range of qualifications open to candidates as highlighted on their website with the biggest change this year has being the Chainsaw modules.
## Thanks
I would like to thank all those on the commitee for their continued help and support.

**Gloucestershire County Proficiency Tests Committee Independent Examiners Report**
## **Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Gloucestershire County Proficiency Tests Committee**
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Gloucestershire County Proficiency Tests Committee for the year ended 31 July 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and the related notes.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011('the Act'). The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under the Charities Act 2011, s.144(2) (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
I report in respect of my examination of the charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
I have completed my examination. I can confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
- the accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
- the accounts do not accord with those records; or
- the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

- Restricted funds These are available for use subject to restrictions imposed by the donor or through terms of an appeal.
## **Income**
- Recognition of Income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the charity income becomes entitled to, and virtually certain to receive, the income and the amount of the income can be measured with sufficient reliability.

Page 7
**Gloucestershire County Proficiency Tests Committee Notes to the Accounts**
## **Expenditure**
- Recognition of Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis. Expenditure includes any VAT expenditure which cannot be fully recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.
- Expenditure on These comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income, fundraising raising funds trading costs and investment management costs. Expenditure on These comprise the costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of its activities and charitable activities services in the furtherance of its objects, including the making of grants and governance costs.
- Grants payable All grant expenditure is accounted for on an actual paid basis plus an accrual for grants that have been approved by the trustees at the end of the year but not yet paid.
- Governance costs These include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the Charity, including any audit/independent examination fees, costs linked to the strategic management of the Charity, together with a share of other administration costs.
- Other expenditure These are support costs not allocated to a particular activity.
## **Taxation**
The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.
## **Freehold investment property**
Investment properties are measured initially at cost and subsequently at fair value at each balance sheet date and are not depreciated. All gains or losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise.
## **Stocks**
Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Donated items of stock are recognised at fair value which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay for the items on the open market.
## **Trade and other debtors**
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
## **Cash and cash equivalents**
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings or current liabilities. In the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the company's cash management.
## **Trade and other creditors**
Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
Page 8
**Gloucestershire County Proficiency Tests Committee Notes to the Accounts**
## **Research and development**
Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred.
## **Foreign currencies**
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period.
Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are recorded at the rate of exchange on the date that the transaction occurred.
All exchange differences are are taken into account in arriving at net income/expenditure.
## **Leased assets**
Where the charity enters into a lease which entails taking substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset, the lease is treated as a finance lease.
Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to charity are classified as operating leases.
Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the charity at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet date as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the charity's policy on borrowing costs.
Assets held under finance leases are depreciated in the same way as owned assets.
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis.
## **Pension costs**
The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the charity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the charity has no further payments obligations. The contributions are recognised as expenses when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the charity in independently administered funds.
## **Receipt of donated goods, facilities and services**
All donated goods, facilities and services received are recognised within incoming resources and expenditure at an estimate of the value to the charity.

Note 1: Responsibilities of Charity Trustees Sept 1999 ‘If trustees act prudently, lawfully and in accordance with their governing document then any liabilities they incur as trustees can be met out of the charity’s resources. But if they act otherwise, they may be in breach of trust and personally liable to meet any call on the charity’s property arising from their actions, or to make good any loss to the charity. Since trustees are acting jointly in administering a charity, they will also be responsible jointly to meet any liability incurred by them or on their behalf.
