Our 8pproach was as follows: We obtdned an underst8nding of the legal and regulatory requlremenls ap￿iCable to the charfty and nsidered that tho most significant are the Charities Act 2011, the Charity SORP. and UK financial reporting slandards as issued by the Fin8ncAal Reporting Council.

We inquireil of management and those charged wth govemance as lo any knovm instsrKes of non- compliance or suspected non4ompllance laws and regulations. Based on thls understanding. we deslgned specific appropriate audit pyocedures to identify instances of non-complkgnce 18WS and regulations. This included making enquiries of management and those ¢harged with govgmancA and obtainlng addlllonal ccfrotorative evldence as reqLired.

We are ￿$$ likely to become aware of Instsnces of non-compliance wlh laws and regulations that are not dosely related lo evènts and tr8ns8cllon8 refiected in tha flnancial stalemenls. Also, the risk of not detecting a malerial misstatement due lo fraud is higher than tho risk of not delecling one resulting from error. as fraud may involvg deliberate concealment by, for example. forgery or intentional misrepresentations or through collusion. 23

Ho￿￿)￿r. the primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests wlh both management and those charge(1 governance of the charfty. Our 8pproach was as follows: We obtdned an underst8nding of the legal and regulatory requlremenls ap￿iCable to the charfty and nsidered that tho most significant are the Charities Act 2011, the Charity SORP. and UK financial reporting slandards as issued by the Fin8ncAal Reporting Council. We obtslned an understsndirvJ of how the tharily complies these requirements by d18cus￿ons management and those chargad WFlh wvemance. We assessed the risk of material mlsslatement of the flnandal statements. indvding the risk of matsrial misstatement due lo fraud and how11 mlght cwJr. by holdlng dIscus￿On$ th managemenl and Ihose charged with govarnance. We inquireil of management and those charged wth govemance as lo any knovm instsrKes of non- compliance or suspected non4ompllance laws and regulations. Based on thls understanding. we deslgned specific appropriate audit pyocedures to identify instances of non-complkgnce 18WS and regulations. This included making enquiries of management and those ¢harged with govgmancA and obtainlng addlllonal ccfrotorative evldence as reqLired. There are Inherent lim1ta￿onS In the audit procedures described obove.

Post-Audit Management Report

We have completed the audit of Walcot Foundation for the year ended 31 March 2023 and we expect to issue an unqualified audit opinion.

This report covers the findings from our audit, the scope of which was communicated to you prior to commencing the work. It includes some recommendations for improving the accounting and internal control systems as well as highlighting some future developments that may be of interest to the board.

We hope that the recommendations are practical and are able to be implemented. We would be grateful if you could discuss the points as a board and will welcome a written response. Please extend our thanks to Marcia and Djilali for all their help with the audit.

If you have any concerns or questions arising from this report, please contact Neil Finlayson or Samir Chandoo.

Yours faithfully,

Audit Approach - Risks

As outlined in our audit scoping report dated 15 May 2023 our audit approach is based on an assessment of the audit risk relevant to the individual financial statement areas. Areas of risk are categorised according to their susceptibility to material misstatement, whether through complexity of transactions or accounting treatment. For each area we calculated a level of testing and review sufficient to give comfort that the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

The following table lists any risks identified at the planning stage and during the course of the audit, our approach to mitigate the risk and our conclusions from completing this work.

Observations concerning the operation of the accounting and control systems

On page 9, we have included details of other matters concerning the operation of the accounting and control systems that should be brought to your attention, along with management’s responses to these matters. We have also provide an assessment of how our previous recommendations have been dealt with.

We are required to report to you, in writing, significant deficiencies in the internal control environment that we have identified during the course of our audit. These matters are limited to those which we have concluded are of sufficient importance to be reported to you. Our audit cannot necessarily be expected to disclose all matters that may be of interest to you and, as a result, the matters reported may not be the only ones which exist. As part of our work, we considered internal controls relevant to the preparation of the financial statements such that we were able to design appropriate audit procedures. This work was not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control.

We have categorised the internal deficiencies noted via a colour-scale rating system. The key to which follows:

CHARITIES ACT REFORM

Through the Queen’s speech on the 11th of May 2021, the government announced reforms to the Charities Bill that will have the effect of reducing the amount of bureaucracy faced by charities. This became law on 24th February 2022 and the Charities Act 2011 is now the Charities Act 2022. The provisions will be implemented on a staggered basis to allow time for the Charity Commission to update its guidance – see the last page of this sector update point.

The main elements of the Charities Bill, which covers charities in England and Wales, will include:

Financial Thresholds - Charity reporting requirements vary according to thresholds that currently exist. It is proposed that these should be reviewed regularly to reflect inflation. This would prevent an increasing number of smaller charities becoming subject to stricter requirements, or acquiring powers, which are not appropriate to their size. The Charity Commission aim to review these in 2022 and every 10 years thereafter.

Changing purposes and amending governing documents - Charities should be able to make changes as quickly and efficiently as possible, whilst retaining safeguards to ensure that any amendments are in the best interests of the charity and its beneficiaries.

The processes for amending a charity’s governing document vary according to the charity’s legal form. The Law Commission’s recommendations would simplify those processes and align them across the different types of charity. They would also simplify the criteria which the Charity Commission considers when agreeing significant changes.

donation if a fundraising appeal does not achieve its target. The effort to do this can be disproportionate to the size of the individual donations. A £120 threshold (per donor) has been recommended to strike a fair balance between protecting the donors and reducing the administrative burden on a charity.

Acquisitions, disposals and mortgages of charity land - The law governing how charities dispose of land requires charities to follow certain rules when they sell, let or mortgage their land. They have agreed to simplify these including how certain universities and colleges dispose of land, aligning it with broader charity and trust law. This includes extending the range of specialist advisers able to provide advice.

Permanent Endowment – In an effort to reduce bureaucracy and costs the definition of a permanent endowment is to be reformulated to remove its inconsistencies and lack of clarity. The move to a £25,000 threshold to enable more endowments to be released will be welcomed and the power to spend 25% of the endowment with a 20-year repayment period (without approaching the Charity Commission first) will serve as valuable tools for Trustees.

Remuneration for the supply of goods and the power to award equitable

allowances - The Act should be updated to allow Trustees to be remunerated for services and goods (currently they can only be remunerated for services). The Charity Commission should have a statutory power to award equitable allowances in situations where charity trustees must account for a benefit that they have received in breach of fiduciary duty.

Cy-près schemes and the proceeds of fundraising appeals - Some charity fundraising appeals raise too much, or too little, money to achieve the appeal’s aim. The current law requires charities to contact donors to offer to return their

Sector Updates

Non-Statutory Ex gratia payments out of charity funds - The introduction of a new statutory power allowing trustees to make small ex gratia payments without having to obtain the prior authorisation of the Charity Commission, the Attorney General or the court; this will apply to ex gratia payments of up to:-

(a) £1,000, in the case of a charity with a gross income in its last financial year of up to £25,000;

(b) £2,500, in the case of a charity with a gross income in its last financial year of more than £25,000 and up to £250,000;

(c) £10,000, in the case of a charity with a gross income in its last financial year of more than £250,000 and up to £1 million; and

(d) £20,000, in the case of a charity with a gross income in its last financial year of more than £1 million.

Charity and Trustee Insolvency - Managing a Charity’s finances (CC12) should be revised. There are recommendations to provide more clarity over the availability of trust property. Property included within permanent endowments, special trusts or restricted funds, which can meet the liabilities of an insolvent trustee, is no different whether the trustee is an individual or a charitable company.

power to make “authorised costs orders” in respect of proposed or ongoing Tribunal proceedings that would provide charity trustees with advance assurance that 1) costs already incurred or proposed to be incurred; and 2) costs ordered to be paid if the litigation is unsuccessful; can properly be paid from the charity’s funds.

This review was to address the issues raised by Lord Hodgson in 2012 and is considered by some as long overdue. Whilst we welcome these changes they will only be implemented if Parliamentary time allows for it.

The Charities Act 2022 can be viewed here: https://bills.parliament.uk/bills/2877

Note: Phase 2 of the reforms comes into play on Wednesday 14 June 2023 .

Charity Names – The Charity Commission already has a framework that enables it to take steps to protect charities from confusion arising from other charities with duplicated or very similar names. This would be extended to cover “working names” of charities as well as the main name of the charity and would extend the Charity Commission’s powers to issue directions on charity names to unregistered and exempt charities.

The identity of a charity’s trustees - The Charity Commission is to be given the power to ratify retrospectively the appointment or election of a person to a charity trustee role.

The Charity Tribunal and the courts - The Charity Tribunal should be given the

THE CHARITY SORP

Following the delay to the triennial review of FRS 102 and FRS 105, the next iteration of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) is expected to be implemented from 1 January 2026 (for Walcot, this will be applicable for the first time in the year ended 31 March 2027). Feels like a long way away, but when a new SORP is applied for the first time it is “retrospectively applied” so this will require restatements for the comparative period and an opening balance sheet as at the start of the prior year (so, 1 pril 2025). Suddenly, not so far away.

Back in January 2022, the SORP Committee (the body responsible for developing the next iteration) issued an overview document that introduced four drafting aims as “themes” for the next SORP, as follows:

• Considering key readers and explaining social purpose

• Compliance with FRC requirements and changes since the last SORP

• Promoting consistency across the Sector

• Relevant to charities and their socioeconomic context

and then provided more detailed context on eight drafting principles to underpin the next SORP:-

Principle 1 - the majority of preparers using the SORP are volunteers,

advisors or practitioners assisting smaller charities and so in writing the SORP we will keep the needs of smaller charities in mind and seek to provide clarity to enable practitioners to understand the requirements of, and good practice recommendations made by, the SORP. As far as practicable and to the extent that accounting standards permit the SORP will be written with language and terminology that is clear and not overly technical to a practitioner who is

otherwise familiar with basic accounting concepts and terms.

Principle 2 - to provide guidance to assist practitioners to prepare accounts that give a ‘true and fair’ view in accordance with current GAAP including addressing any charity specific matters not addressed by GAAP.

Principle 3 - when making changes to the reporting and accounting

requirements to have regard to the potential impact of those changes on the public’s continuing support for the legitimate charitable endeavour and to the practical challenges of addressing public perception of charities’ reporting and accounting practices.

Principle 4 – to ensure that the narrative reporting requirements address the interests of the main users of the report and accounts.

Principle 5 - to innovate by introducing or changing reporting requirements where this is necessary to either assist practitioners or meet the needs of the main users of the report and accounts and to reduce the need for additional bespoke requirements by any charity law jurisdiction adopting the SORP.

Principle 6 - to disseminate good practice reporting where the SORP Committee recommends that this is in the best interests of the sector as a means of helping the wider charity sector and practitioners to meet the needs of the main users of the report and accounts.

Principle 7- to reflect the requirements of charity law and company law as they apply to reporting and accounting by charities in those jurisdictions adopting the SORP.

31

SECTOR UPDATES

Principle 8 - to take account in our decision-making on any changes to the reporting and accounting requirements and recommendations of the SORP of both the potential value of the information to the user and the demands placed on the preparer of making those changes or recommendations.

As we move into the period of time where a new draft SORP will be issued for consultation it appears areas such as “a further tiering of charitable organisations by size for reporting” (where smaller Charities could see reduced disclosure, whilst larger entities could experience more PLC type reporting requirements), “future proofing the SORP for ESG, sustainability and digital innovations” and considering “comparability” (will the discussions around a “one page key facts statement for all charities” remain) will all need to come to the forefront and be concluded upon.

FRS 102 and FRED 82

The financial reporting exposure draft (“FRED”) 82 from the FRC has now completed its consultation period, having closed on 30 April 2023, in relation to its proposed changes to the UK accounting framework including FRS 102.

Underlying the Charities SORP is the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). The SORP provides guidance for charities on how to apply FRS 102 in order to ensure that charity accounts are ‘true and fair’. FRS 102 also takes precedence over the Charity SORP.

requirements of IFRS 15 'Revenue from Contracts with Customers', but with simplifications aimed at ensuring the requirements remain cost-effective to apply. Many charities have diverse sources of funding, including income from charitable activities, donations and legacies, where funds are given freely. However, some transactions such as contracts and sales in the financial statements could be impacted by the FRED 82 updates. It is hoped that any update here will be accompanied with sector specific guidance for Charities, alongside the SORP.

•Leases - Leasing requirements in FRS 102 are set to change significantly. An IFRS 16 'leases'-based model has been proposed, requiring lessees to recognise all leases on the balance sheet, subject to limited exemptions. This change could be very onerous, with an on-balance sheet “right to use asset” which will then be amortised over the length of the operating lease being the likely outcome here for all Charities to consider.

•Other feedback - The FRED 82 consultation also notes that there may be changes to the length, complexity and detailed nature of the notes to the financial statements (further exemptions may be provided from drafting comparative notes in certain areas for example). This would be welcome news for many Charities (including conversations we have had with many clients regarding the ever increasing length of the financial statements) and particularly those with complex fund structures including unrestricted, designated, restricted and endowment funds.

In relation to Charities, it appears the proposed changes will have three key considerations for the future of the annual Financial Statements:-

•Incoming resources - FRED 82 proposes the introduction of a five-step model for revenue recognition in FRS 102. The model will be based on the

FUNDRAISING AND GOVERNANCE UPDATES Gift acceptance issues for fundraising charities

Charities are obliged to accept donations unless they have a very strong reason not to. This was an issue with the President’s Club furore, where it was difficult for some of the charities involved to return donations, even when public opinion believed they should do so.

This can be an issue with ESG considerations in fundraising. A number of Trusts and Foundations have chosen to declare a climate emergency, which will have implications for the types of organisations they will accept donations from and additionally provide donations and grants to. This list of exclusions moves beyond previous exemptions of tobacco and the arms industry. If an oil or gas giant, for example, wished to make a sizeable donation with naming rights, how would the charity deal with the issue? These and other issues relating to gift acceptance can be picked up during one of our Code of Fundraising Practice compliance reviews. We can also work with you to resolve the governance challenges these issues create.

Addressing ESG challenges

“ESG”, Environment Social and Governance, are three letters with growing significance for the corporate sector and this is starting to be seen across the statutory and nonprofit sectors too. Consumers and employees are increasingly expecting that companies consider purpose as well as profit. These same individuals may be donors of charities and will start to apply the same views to their giving. The Social Value Act already imposes ESG principles into how statutory commissioners contract with providers, so many charities who may also look to provide services under these agreements will already be thinking about ESG matters. Charities also need to start to consider their greenhouse gas emissions in more detail beyond SECR,

including scope 3 emissions that are created through third parties as a result of charitable activities, such as donors driving to a fundraising event, rather than using public transport or cycling.

Next Steps for the Charity Governance Code (“CGC”)

The Charity Governance Code is a practical tool to help charities and their trustees develop high standards of governance and we, at Moore Kingston Smith, have worked with a number of Charities in order to use this Code as a framework for a full external governance review of the organisation.

The Charity Governance Code steering group has had a new Chair since the middle of 2022, Radjoka Miljevic. She has recently shared her first blog, where she reflected on the future of the Code. In the blog, she talks about the importance of frameworks, and the value of hearing from a wide range of voices.

Radojka also looks at the future of the Code, which will be reviewed in 2023. She shares her thoughts on key governance challenges, including:

• •digital and cyber concerns

• •our wider environment

• •our engagement with nature and the climate

• •social changes from power dynamics to wellbeing.

It would be an excellent governance development if more charities in the sector embraced the CGC and referring to their work (and any changes as a result of the reviews completed) in their trustees annual report.

Minimum standard for Audit Committees Published

T he FRC has published a minimum standard for Audit Committees and the External Audit. The need for a standard was highlighted through the Government’s Restoring Trust in Audit and Corporate Governance. When the FRC becomes ARGA (Audit, Reporting and Governance Authority), they will be given the statutory powers to mandate minimum standards for audit committees. Whilst the standard will apply to FTSE 350 companies we would recommend that Audit Committees should refer to the guidelines, consider if they should adopt any or a modified form of any of the requirements, as examples of good governance. The standard will be voluntary until ARGA has been established. The standard can be found Audit Committee Minimum Standard (frc.org.uk)

FRC launched a consultation on revisions to the UK Corporate Governance Code

The FRC launched a consultation covering its review of the UK Corporate Governance code. Here are five priority areas of focus:

• Aligning the code with the changes to the legal and regulatory requirements, including strengthening reporting on directors’ remuneration on malus and clawback arrangements.

• Revising the parts of the Code which cover the framework for prudent and effective controls to provide a stronger basis for reporting and evidencing their effectiveness.

• Including responsibilities for sustainability and ESG reporting and appropriate assurance.

• Reflecting the Minimum Standard for Audit Committees.

• Improving comply or explain functioning where reporting is currently weaker.

The Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023 (ECCT Act)

Having received Royal Assent on 26 October 2023, the Act will introduce a transformation of Companies House’s role from registrar to regulator. This will impact any charitable company or a charity that has a trading subsidiary or a charity that has a corporate director. The Act includes provision for: Further information about the Act can be found the following series of factsheets produced by the government: Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Bill 2022: Factsheets - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk).

Significant parts of the ECCT Act are targeted at Companies House reform which will include:

(1) Undertake identity verification for all new and existing company directors, PSCs and those filing documents at Companies House

(i) New company directors will need to have their identity verified before notifying Companies House of their appointment as a director.

During a transitional period, existing directors will be required to have their identify verified before the company files its next confirmation statement after the new rules take effect.

(ii) People with significant control (“PSCs”) will also need to be verified on becoming a PSC. Where a PSC is a company or other entity, one of its officers will need to be verified.

(iii) Anyone who is delivering documents to Companies House either on their own behalf or on behalf of another party, will need to have their identity verified unless they are an employee of an Authorised Corporate Service Provider (“ACSP”) acting in the course of their employment. It is likely that professional firms such as accountancy firms and law firms will apply to become ACSPs.

When an individual’s identity has been verified, that individual will be allocated a unique identifier allowing Companies House to maintain a database of verified individuals. Provided individuals maintain their verified status, they will not need to have their identity re-checked each time they make a Companies House filing.

.

Regulatory Updates

• (2) Having wider powers to check, remove, challenge and decline information submitted or already available on the register

• (3) Having a wider investigatory and enforcement power to cross-check data with both public and private databases.

Companies House has announced that the wider powers will not be introduced straight away and further notice and guidance will be released in due course. However, some measures are likely to come into forced in early 2024 and this may include questioning over information filed with them, stronger checks on company names, new rules for registered office addresses (no ability to use a PO Box), requirement to confirm the company is being formed for lawful purposes on incorporation (every year thereafter, companies will be required to confirm that their future activities will be lawful), sharing data with other government departments and law enforcement agencies and the requirement to supply a registered email address.

Requirements for companies accounts and filing will change, with the introduction of:

• The abridged accounts filing option will be removed.

• All companies will have to file their profit and loss account and Directors' Report. Micro-entities will only need to file a profit and loss account.

• Directors who use the audit exemption rules, including dormant companies, will have to file an exemption statement, identifying the exemption being relied on and to confirm that the company qualifies for the exemption.

• Mandating digital filing and full tagging of financial information in iXBRL format (as noted above), and a reduction of the number of times a company can shorten its Accounting Reference Period.

Other changes being introduced by the ECCT Act include the new criminal offence of failure to prevent fraud. A large (by the Companies Act definition) organisation would be liable where a fraud offence is committed by an employee or agent, for the organisation's benefit, and the organisation did not have reasonable fraud prevention procedures in place.

CC8 – Internal Controls

The Charity Commission has recently updated its guidance on internal controls, known as CC8. This is a longstanding piece of guidance which had not been updated since it was first published in 2012. It provides invaluable guidance to trustees and senior management teams around the operation of a charity’s internal controls. Whilst the existing guidance covered many relevant areas, the regulator has acknowledged that there are a number of new issues and threats which were not relevant when the previous guidance was published. The guidance also includes a refreshed checklist which can be used to benchmark systems and processes.

What has changed?

The guidance includes a new section on donations of cryptoassets, such as bitcoin and NFTs. It sets out a number of risks associated with cryptocurrencies, and emphasises the importance of charities understanding those risks before accepting donations of cryptoassets. If such donations are accepted, there are a range of recommendations including having a policy in place on the acceptance of cryptoassets, the need to ensure that any platform used is compliant with UK regulations, the requirement to keep accurate records of donations and the importance of following HMRC guidance around the taxation of cryptoassets.

The guidance has also been updated for other areas which have become relevant since 2012, such as the use of mobile payment systems (for example Google Pay or Apple Pay). In addition to the new areas, the guidance also includes a refresh on advice for more traditional risks – for example, those around fundraising and holding public collections, making payments to related parties and operating internationally. A number of these have been recent areas of focus for the Charity Commission.

What should you do?

We recommend that relevant individuals utilise CC8 to assess how your charity’s policies, systems and processes compare to the guidance. The guidance is most relevant for senior members of the finance team and the charity’s treasurer, but an awareness of the guidance will be helpful for a range of individuals involved in charity finance. The guidance can also form helpful reading as part of an induction pack.

We suggest using the internal controls checklist to benchmark processes at least annually. Completing the checklist periodically can be a helpful way of focusing on systems and processes; but note the checklist does not assess the underlying quality of the controls in place. However, it is a helpful way to review the core controls in place and an excellent starting point to benchmark what is in place.

A further new area addressed is around the risk of cybercrime, an area which become significantly more prominent in recent years. The guidance focuses on the need to ensure there are suitable policies in place, for example in relation to storage and processing of electronic data. As in a number of areas, it cross-refers to more detailed guidance on this topic issued by the Charity Commission.

Investment Guidance

The Charity Commission has been reviewing the way it encourages charities to invest in a responsible way. How charities weigh up the need for financial return vs investing ethically and reducing carbon emissions is tricky and Charities have been awaiting updated Guidance from the Charity Commission (following its CC14 consultation and feedback in late 2021 and then a delay to its proposed updates) alongside ESG concepts developing in the NonProfit sector.

In the absence of anything forthcoming, the High Court ruling with the Ashden Trust and The Mark Leonard Trust has confirmed that climate change can be prioritised even if it risks the financial return.

In the Butler-Sloss & Others v Charity Commission (2022) case, the judgement handed down provided clarity in relation to the extent to which charity trustees can permit their objects and wider moral considerations to influence their investment policy. As a result, charities can exclude investments that conflict with their objects – proving the decision is entered into in a proper manner. However, the judge advised against making decisions purely on moral grounds.

Further information regarding CC14 can be found overleaf.

Property

Sustainability is on the agenda and charities should be reviewing their estates and planning for steps that will make properties more sustainable, so that your Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) ratings are as good as they can be. Below par EPCs will restrict what you can do with your property and advice should be sought on how to improve EPC ratings – especially if your property is listed.

The Building Safety Act has brought in some new and strengthened safety measures in response to the Grenfell Tower fire. There are new rules on carbon monoxide alarms in relation to tenancies.

The MKS Property team can provide further assistance in these areas if you require.

Trustees of charities have, in most instances, always tried to review their investment decisions in conjunction with their charitable aims and continue to manage the balancing act with the need to produce investment returns.

Whilst most charities will await the revised guidance from the Charities Commission (and we expect the consultation feedback exercise to restart shortly),Trustees must remember that they are required to act in the best interests of the charity and they should formulate an appropriate investment policy which should deal with direct and indirect conflicts within their

Investing Charity Money CC14 (revised)

On the 1[st] of August 2023, following a consultation exercise, and the ButlerSloss & Others case, the Charity Commission updated its guidance on how trustees can invest their charity’s cash resources.

In the Butler-Sloss & Others v Charity Commission (2022) case, the judgement handed down provided clarity in relation to the extent to which charity trustees can permit their objects and wider moral considerations to influence their investment policy. As a result, charities can exclude investments that conflict with their objects – providing the decision is entered into in a proper manner. However, the judge advised against making decisions purely on moral grounds.​

The revised guidance also makes clear that any charity that invests its available resources must also have a written investment policy in place and that this policy is reviewed on a regular basis to ensure it is being adhered to.

A more detailed read of the new guidance is encouraged, and this can be found here: Investing charity money: guidance for trustees (CC14) - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

Overall, the guidance hasn’t detracted from the advice that was previously provided, in that trustees must make investment decisions that further the charity’s purposes and that these decisions should be kept under continuous review. However, with emerging ESG concepts trustees are now being encouraged to think about ethical investing alongside the desire to enhance the financial returns generated.

The revised guidance dispenses with the words “ethical investing” or “responsible investments” or “programme investments” as these terms have often been confusing, and unclear. Instead, the guidance refers to:

Financial Investments – which are made simply to obtain the most bang for your buck but allowing you to take sustainability and impact into your decisionmaking processes.

Social Investments – which are those investment primarily designed to further the charity’s purposes (and, to a lesser extent, making a financial return).

Cyber Defences for Charities – Cyber Essentials accreditation

Confidentiality of information in Charities has always been of paramount importance. A breach affecting records of its data which could involve donors, children, ethic and religious categories is typically very serious and would invite increased regulatory and public scrutiny with potential severe financial penalties. Uncontrolled disclosure of any sensitive information could severely undermine the trust and confidence of the public engaged with them, as well as compliance issues within the governing structure.

Furthermore, reflecting the general pervasiveness of technology in our lives, charities are much more reliant on IT to both process data, marketing and financial information. An IT outage affecting the computer system may, within quite a short time frame, affect the charity to operate.

The security threat from the simple use of e-mail and the web is very real, with phishing and ransomware attacks commonplace in today’s internetconnected world. Successful cyberattacks range from the theft of sensitive information to long-term disruption to the operation of IT systems.

Maintaining a minimum level of cyber compliance across a Charity’s IT infrastructure is therefore absolutely key to not falling victim to a cyberattack. As technology constantly evolves becoming more ingrained into daily life, it is often difficult to know what this minimum level looks like in practice. The technical capabilities to strengthen cyber security defences is not always internally available within the Charity. For Trust Governors, it can be challenging to determine whether the Charities its infrastructure is adequately protected against the omnipresent threat of a cyberattack.

An example of an internal fraud – the details of a supplier are duplicated onto the system and the duplicate given the fraudulent parties bank details. “Real invoices” are paid twice, hidden in the batch run, once real and once fraudulent.

Controls to mitigate the risk – Approval of new suppliers and monthly management accounts reviews. The additional payment debit will need to be either to a balance sheet code or will be seen through an inflated expense code on the SOFA.

“Fraudulent staff/temp staff costs”

The fraudulent party continues to pay staff after they have left (using updated fraudulent bank details), enrols ghost employees for payment or processes fake invoices through “busy” nominal codes such as temp staff costs.

Action Fraud for reporting - https://www.actionfraud.police.uk/

This area is notoriously fast moving, with new areas of attempted fraud arising daily, but some of the prevalent current frauds and potential controls to protect your charity from these, include:

Controls to mitigate the risk - This fraud is almost always discovered through a review of management accounts vs budgets. Preventive controls would include approval of staff detail changes and “lock down” on leavers details in a timely fashion.

“Supplier mandate fraud”

Contact is made from a “supplier” employee who is noting (either by phone or official headed notepaper) a change of bank details. The bank details are fraudulent.

Control to mitigate the risk – review and approval of all standing data supplier

“Email takeover”

An internet based fraud that is expanding rapidly (and becoming more sophisticated). The finance team receive an email “from” the FD/CEO usually late afternoon, indicating they have forgotten to pay a key supplier and it should be paid immediately.

The email is fraudulent and so are the bank details given.

Controls to mitigate the risk – Communication by phone or face to face to confirm details. Do not allow payments to supplier details that do not match those saved on the standing data.

CORPORATE CRIMINAL OFFENCE - FAILURE TO PREVENT THE FACILITATION OF TAX EVASION

Your legal obligation

All corporate bodies (including charitable companies), regardless of size, have a legal obligation to ensure that ‘reasonable prevention measures’ are in place to prevent employees and other associates (for example, sub- contractors) criminally facilitating tax evasion while acting on behalf of the organisation. If an associate is discovered to have criminally facilitated another’s tax evasion while acting on behalf of the company, the company is criminally liable to unlimited penalties unless the defence can be mounted that reasonable procedures were in place to prevent the criminal facilitation from occurring.

due diligence process in sales transactions. Governance boards and nonexecutive directors are also requiring assurance on compliance as part of their work. Therefore, it is essential that companies adopt a proactive approach to risk management and employee communication. It is worth noting that the new remote way of working could give rise to an increased opportunity for associates to facilitate tax evasion.

Our pragmatic approach

We can assist the company with a bespoke, and cost effective risk assessment in order to comply with the legislation. Should this be of interest, please contact Andrew Stickland.

Obtain peace of mind and undertake a risk assessment

A risk assessment is fundamental to responding to the legislation. If the risk of criminal facilitation of tax evasion is assessed to be low, it may be that no significant additional measures are required. However, without having undertaken and documented a risk review or notified employees of what constitutes criminal facilitation, companies may struggle to mount such a defence.

HMRC has the power to issue unlimited fines for companies that fail to prevent the facilitation of tax evasion.

Compliance is key

Although company directors should naturally be focused on the potential for any form of criminal prosecution as a matter of course, simply being able to demonstrate awareness of and compliance with the regime is becoming increasingly important, with this now being routinely examined as part of the

Employment Sector Updates

2023 / 2024 look set to be important years for employment law, with many developments on the horizon.

Holiday Pay

The landmark Supreme Court case of Brazel v Harpur Trust meant that part-year workers on permanent contracts must receive the full 5.6 weeks of paid annual leave per year regardless of the number of weeks they have worked in the leave year and that holiday pay for workers on irregular hours must be calculated using an average of their ordinary remuneration over a 52-week reference period. The Government, concerned that holiday entitlement should be proportionate to hours worked, opened a consultation and proposed that holiday pay should be calculated at the beginning of each leave year using a fixed reference period of the previous 52 weeks and that the multiplier of 12.07% should be restored as a method of calculating holiday entitlement and pay. The consultation has now closed and we await the outcome, though we are cautiously optimistic of good news for employers on the horizon.

We also await the outcome of the Supreme Court case of the Chief Constable of Northern Ireland v Agnew and Others, which was heard in December 2023. This is an appeal against a decision of the Northern Ireland Court of Appeal, which ruled that a correct holiday payment does not break a series of unauthorised deductions. Depending on how the court rules, this may mean that making correct payments going forward but not making backdated payments in the hope that the employee does not bring any claim or does not do so in time may no longer be a valid means of reducing the risk of claims. We will update you as soon as possible.

National Minimum Wage

The National Minimum Wage is calculated using a worker’s basic hours over a reference period. But what are a worker’s basic hours? In the case of Lloyd v Elmhurst School Limited, the Employment Appeal Tribunal ruled that a part year worker’s basic hours should be calculated on the basis of the hours set out in her contract and not hours worked. Because her contract entitled her to ‘the normal school holidays’ as ‘holidays with pay’ the calculation had to be performed using 52 weeks and not the 40 weeks she actually worked. Employers should review their contracts to ensure the wording does not expose them to National Minimum Wage claims.

The UK’s withdrawal from the European Union

The Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill 2022-2023 was introduced into the House of Commons in late 2022. It aims to change the expected approach of reviewing and amending retained EU law slowly via legislation or case law deviating from EU rulings, allowing the UK to enact laws that best fit the country and its economy.

The Bill, as originally proposed, provided that, by default, all retained EU laws would sunset on 31 December 2023. However, the government has reversed that position. The current position is that retained EU laws will remain in place after that date unless they are added to the Bill by way of a list. EU laws that remain in place after that date may be revoked, amended or replaced after proper consideration. At time of writing, none of the major pieces of employment legislation have made it to the list.

Employment Bill 2022 – Private Members’ Bills

Although the Employment Bill did not make it to the Queen’s Speech, private members’ bills were introduced in Parliament, which aim to implement parts of the Employment Bill. These private members bills all received government backing and are at various stages of the legislative process.

• Legislation to require employers to pass on all tips and gratuities to workers and to ensure that these were distributed on a fair and transparent basis, supported by a statutory Code of Practice. This Bill received Royal Assent on 2 May 2023, and we would expect this to become law in 2024;

• A new right for workers to request a more predictable contract after 26 weeks’ service. This Bill has its third reading in the House of Lords on 18 September 2023, so still making its way through the legislative process but we would expect this to receive Royal Assent in 2023 or 2024. We will monitor progress and keep you updated;

• The Worker Protection (Amendment of Equality Act 2010) Bill proposed amendments to the Equality Act 2010. One of the key amendments proposed is to require employers to take all reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment of their employees and make employers liable for third party harassment with a potential uplift in compensation for failure to comply with the duty to take all reasonable attempts to prevent harassment. The most recent development is that the House of Lords has amended the Bill and removed the third-party harassment provisions. The Bill is now back with the House of Commons and will move forward without any express reference to third-party harassment, so we now need to wait and see whether the House of Commons re-introduces those provisions as the Bill progresses, although commentators seem to believe that this is unlikely. We will keep you updated.

• An extension to the period of redundancy protection for pregnant workers from the point when an employee notifies their employee of their pregnancy until 6 months after the end of their maternity leave. This Bill received Royal Assent on 24 May 2023. No date has been announced for implementation but judging by the progress of similar private members bills, we would expect this to be in force in 2024 or 2025.

• New rights to neonatal leave and pay and a week’s leave for unpaid carers. This Bill received Royal Assent on 24 May 2023. It is expected that this will be in force by April 2025.

• Making flexible working a day one right instead of having to wait 26 weeks to be able to request it, introducing a new obligation for employers to consult with employees regarding flexible working requests, reducing the decision period from 3 to 2 months, allowing two requests per annum instead of just one and reducing the requirement for employees to explain to employers the potential impact on the business of a flexible working request. This Bill received Royal Assent on 20 July 2023 and is expected to become law in July 2024.

Proposals

The Government is consulting about reducing Working Time Regulations burdens on business, in particular:

• Allowing employers to include an amount for holiday pay in an employee’s hourly rate rather than having to pay it each time the employee takes leave, which is known as rolled up holiday pay;

• Removing the requirement for employers to keep adequate records to ensure that its employees to not exceed the 48-hour working week;

• Merging but not reducing the EU entitlement to 4 weeks’ annual leave with the additional 1.6 weeks provided by UK law to create a single statutory leave entitlement;

Sector Updates

The Government is also consulting about making TUPE less burdensome on small businesses by allowing employers with less than 50 employees to consult directly with employees rather than having to elect reps (at the moment this option is only available to employers with less than 10 employees).

The Government has also announced plans to limit the use of non-compete clauses to 3 months post-employment. Whilst this would obviously boost competitiveness and therefore the economy, if this is passed as a blanket provision, employers’ protections could be significantly weakened. We will monitor this and update you if there are any developments.

Will there be a new protected characteristic for menopause?

The government has said that it does not plan to make menopause a specific protected characteristic because their view is that it is already covered by sex, age and disability discrimination. However, a July 2022 report by the House of Commons Women and Equalities Committee has recommended that it become a protected characteristic, so we will watch out for any further developments in this area. Employers may however wish to consider drawing up menopause policies if they do not already have one.

Diversity and Inclusion

Efforts to improve diversity and inclusion are very much on the corporate agenda and are expected to remain so in 2023 and 2024.

Balancing the legal rights between employees’ freedom to express opinions that may be offensive with diversity and inclusion is an extremely difficult exercise and we expect cases like this to be a growth area in employment disputes in the coming years.

Employment Tribunal Claims

Tribunal statistics have not been published for some time because the data is being migrated onto a new system. However, it is now reported that cases are taking an average of 49 weeks from the date an employee brings a claim to get to their first hearing, which suggests that cases are very much on the rise. We would expect that trend to continue.

Ethnicity Pay Gap Reporting

The Government had considered making ethnicity pay gap reporting compulsory in the same way as gender pay gap reporting is. It ultimately decided not to make this compulsory but to allow employers instead to publish details of their ethnicity pay gap voluntarily.

The long-awaited official guidance has now been published by the Government to enable employers to report their ethnicity pay gap should they choose to do so. The guidance can be found at https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/ethnicity-payreporting-guidance-for-employers/collecting-ethnicity-data for any employer considering whether they might wish to consider reporting this.

In the case of Forstater v CGD Europe, the Supreme Court decided that an employer discriminated against an employee by not renewing her fixed term contract because she had expressed her belief that individuals cannot change their biological sex. However, in the case of Makareth v DWP, it was decided that there was no discrimination where an employee was dismissed for expressing similar views because he had indicated that he did not intend to use peoples’ preferred pronouns, thus showing that he had an intention to discriminate.

Does your Charity have a bullying and harassment policy?

The Charity Commission published new guidance for Charities on 11 August 2022, clarifying the roles and responsibilities of charity trustees in in relation to tackling bullying and harassment within Charities.

The Commission’s guidelines included a specific recommendation that charities have welfare, discipline and whistleblowing policies for staff, including clear policies and procedures on bullying and harassment.

Bullying and harassment in the workplace can affect staff morale, allow unacceptable behaviours to take place and ultimately expose charities to the risk of employment tribunal claims.

Specific claims risks to charities for not taking appropriate action to eliminate bullying and harassment include:

• Employees resigning and claiming constructive unfair dismissal on the basis of the bullying and harassment and any failure by the charity to deal with it appropriately

• Discrimination claims if the bullying and harassment is on account of any characteristic that is protected by the Equality Act 2010 e.g., race, gender, disability, religious and philosophical beliefs

• Civil claims for personal injury (stress at work) and/or under the Protection from the Harassment Act 1997

There is a risk that any failure by charities to implement the Charity Commission’s guidance could in itself be relied upon by employees to bolster any claims they may bring.

Charities should ensure that they have the recommended policies and procedures in place and provide regular training to staff about their obligations under these policies. This will help eliminate bullying, demonstrate commitment to doing so and also reduce any risk of claims and regulatory issues.

The policy should, at a minimum, set out the types of behaviour that could be bullying and harassment, explaining clearly the process for making allegations of such behaviour, the process that the company will follow upon receipt of such allegations and the potential consequences for workplace bullies.

What other policies should charities have in place?

There are other key policies and procedures that charities can implement in order to demonstrate their commitment to treating employees fairly and tackling bullying and harassment.

For example:

• A welfare policy

• A grievance policy

• A raising concerns policy relating to specific types of complaints that have a wider public interest

• A disciplinary policy.

Sector Updates

• An equality and diversity policy

These policies, if well drafted, give both parties valuable information about their rights and responsibilities and also give a charity a useful action plan for how to handle any issues that might arise and any timescales that they need to comply with.

In addition, having these policies in place and ensuring that staff receive training on them may give the charity a defence to a claim that they are liable for the acts or omissions of an employee who ‘goes rogue’ and bullies or discriminates against an employee against company instructions.

These do not have to be standalone policies - they can be included in a Staff Handbook. It is recommended that you do not make them contractual to eliminate the risk of employees claiming that technical breaches of the policies e.g., a missed deadline for responding to a letter, is a breach of contract.

We recommend that charities audit their policies and procedures to ensure that all of the required and helpful policies are in place and updated regularly to comply with the most relevant legal developments.

Should you require any assistance with reviewing, drafting or updating your policies to help you eliminate bullying and harassment and reduce your claims risk, please contact your Audit Engagement Partner.
