THE CHARITIES ADMINISTERED ICW THE HONOURABLE SOCIETY OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT & FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

TRUSTEES’ REPORT

These Financial Statements have been prepared under the accounting policies detailed in Note 1 on page 15 of the accounts and comply with the Trust Deed, applicable law, and the requirements of the “Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice” (FRS102).

Objects and Activities for the public benefit

The Trustees confirm that they have considered the public benefit guidance available from the Charity Commission when reviewing the Trust Funds’ aims and objectives and in planning future activities and setting scholarship making policy for the year.

The Trust Funds have been established to advance the education of intending practitioners at the Bar of England and Wales, through the award of scholarships.

The Trustees have established their scholarship policy to achieve the maximum public benefit. The Trustees firmly believe that a strong and independent Bar is a vital part of the Constitution for the following reasons:-

The ultimate beneficiary of the Trust Funds’ scholarship awards is the nation at large.

The Trust Funds carry out these objects by financing scholarships to individuals studying the Bar Professional Training Course (the ‘BPTC’) or the conversion course (the Graduate Diploma in Law or an equivalent), with the intention to undertake pupillage in England & Wales and commence in practice. The funds are provided from several Restricted Funds and Unrestricted Funds.

The Middle Temple Scholarship Fund was established in 2003 to further encourage donations from members of Middle Temple to fund future scholarship awards for the public benefit.

The aim of the Trustees is to ensure, wherever possible, a steady increase in the number and size of awards available, whilst maintaining the underlying value of the investments. The Trustees have delegated to the Scholarship & Prizes Sub-committee the task of making individual awards (both as to numbers and size) and to the Investment Sub-committee the proper investment of the Funds. One of the Trustees (historically, the Chair) is an ex officio member of the Investment Sub-committee and the Investment Manager’s reports to the Sub-committee go to all the Trustees. The Middle Temple interviews every scholarship applicant, who must be a member of the Inn and have secured a place on the Bar Professional Training Course at one of ten institutions around the country. The deciding criterion for the award of a scholarship is an individual’s merit. Scholarships are awarded with a view to maximising assistance to the more disadvantaged applicants; the quantum of any award is such that those applicants from poorer sections of the community receive a higher value scholarship and more help is available to a wider range of students.

THE CHARITIES ADMINISTERED ICW THE HONOURABLE SOCIETY OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT & FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

Details of how to apply for a scholarship are available on the Middle Temple website. https://www.middletemple.org.uk/education-and-training/scholarships-and-prizes

Achievements and Performance

Scholarships with a total value of £1,065k (2019: £1,258k) were awarded during the year, the majority of which were in the form of study awards. There is a total of £123k (2019: £245k) awards deferred, whilst some of the deferred awards from the previous years were given up. This is due to changes in the circumstances of the beneficiaries between the award of a scholarship (in the Spring of each year) and the commencement of the Bar course (in the Autumn). In most cases this is due to being unable to cover the full cost of studying and living costs. In fewer instances the need to defer is driven by unforeseen changes in their life circumstances. Grant recipients are allowed to defer for up to three years. The Education team of the Honourable Society of the Middle Temple administers the grants on behalf of the Trust Funds and keeps detailed records of any awards that are deferred. These deferred awards are reviewed on an annual basis to ascertain if the awards will eventually be paid or not.

The Trustees are aware of the materiality of deferred awards and the impact that holding cash that is not immediately required has on the Trust Funds’ cash flow requirements. The Trustees are committed to continue monitoring this issue and to explore ways in which to better manage cash resources.

A further £1,469k was donated to The Middle Temple Scholarship Fund, bringing the total raised so far to £6,345k.

During 2020, the value of the investment portfolio increased to £16.2m and achieved a Total Return of 3.5% (net of fees) compared to a benchmark of -0.3%. The total portfolio value includes cash deposits of £102k (2019: £362k). Following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the value of the portfolio decreased to £13.26 million at the end of March 2020. The value has subsequently recovered to just under £17.4 million as of 24 September 2021.

Since June 2004 (when Investec took over investment management services), the Total Return was 8.5% on an annualised basis, which compares favourably with the benchmark of 7.8%.

Further work is being carried out to facilitate measurement of the impact that the award of a scholarship has on a scholar. As the Trusts have been established to advance the education of intending practitioners at the Bar of England & Wales, it can be said that the Trust Funds’ impact is considerable in providing financial support to students attending the BPTC or the GDL (or its equivalent): the award of a scholarship being contingent on securing a place at the appropriate course provider.

The Development Department keeps a record of professional student’s progress, from the relevant starting point of the Access to the Bar Scheme or a Major Scholarship award to BPTC grades, date of Call to the Bar of England and Wales, pupillage, and tenancy. Scholars are encouraged to keep the Inn informed of all stages of their progress but are not obliged to do so. The Inn’s new membership management system has improved the quality and accuracy of data held on its members. The implementation of the system has been challenging and it has not been possible to fully implement reliable tracking of an individual scholar’s career progression. This is being addressed and the Inn’s newly established Development Department will be working with the Education Department to improve impact measurement.

THE CHARITIES ADMINISTERED ICW THE HONOURABLE SOCIETY OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT & FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

The Inn has been successful in admitting a broad range of diverse individuals to membership of the Inn and is committed to continue its efforts to increase that diversity, particularly from individuals who would not otherwise consider a career at the Bar. The Inn has an ‘outreach’ capability as well as the tried and tested ‘Access to the Bar’ scheme, which offers bursaries to individuals to experience life at the Bar first-hand on a one-week placement. As a result of the recent Black Lives Matter movement, the Trustees reviewed the diversity of scholarship beneficiaries and remain committed to ensuring that diversity continues.

Financial Review

The Trust Funds are reliant upon a number of income streams:

  1. Income from the investment portfolio, which during the year amounted to £341k (2019: £487k); 2. Donations, which includes £660k (2019: £500k) from the Inn and £1,753k (2019: £111k) from external donors; and

  2. Investment Properties income worth £122k (2010: £128k).

The majority of income was awarded in scholarships: £1,065k in 2020 (2019: £1,258k).

Income

Expenditure

Investment policy and performance

The investments are actively managed in accordance with the long-term objective of a balanced return within a medium risk profile, whilst continuing to hold a diversified portfolio. The annual Total Return performance of the portfolio since 2014 is shown in the table below.

5

THE CHARITIES ADMINISTERED ICW THE HONOURABLE SOCIETY OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT & FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
2014 5.0%
2015 3.3%
2016 14.4%
2017 11.9%
2018 -4.3%
2019 17.1%
2020 3.5%

During 2020, the return on the investment portfolio returned to positive territory from that in 2019. This results from active asset allocation and good stock selection on the part of the investment managers. The tactical position of being underweight in bonds was positive for the fund. The fund’s bond investments continue to be biased towards shorter-dated and less volatile issues. Equity holdings performed well, also from tactical positioning. The returns on overseas equities were positive but were muted by the impact of currency movements, particularly sterling. The fund also benefited from its exposure to infrastructure assets, particularly in renewable energy.

Reserves policy

The Trustees hold reserves to ensure that every-day administration costs can be funded for a period of up to 12-months. They have considered if it would be prudent to hold reserves to finance one year’s worth of scholarship awards but have concluded that this would tie-up too much cash within the Trusts.

However, the total Unrestricted Income funds held is disclosed as £5.38m (2019: £4.53m). This includes the total value of the Middle Temple Scholarship Fund. The Trustees have considered how best to use these funds to support beneficiaries. At their meeting in March 2021, the Trustees resolved to implement a drawdown policy for the unrestricted funds of an average of £300,000 per annum to support an increase in scholarship award funding to an average of 75% of the funding shortfall for scholars. The Trustees also resolved to review this position on a periodic basis.

How much to release is considered and agreed on an annual basis, at the time of setting up the annual budget. This discussion and decision-making process is also connected to the level of financial support that the Inn can provide, in the form of the annual grant to the Trust Funds. The Trustees continue to consider all this constrains in order to maximise public benefit whilst ensuring the mediumand long-term sustainability of the charity.

The investment portfolio is held for the longer term and is not available to pay for scholarships directly, given the restrictions on certain of the trusts that are held in the portfolio. Rather, that portfolio generates income to support annual scholarship awards. This income is drawn off from the portfolio and is supplemented by funding from the Inn.

It is hoped that the Inn’s Development team will be able to generate new donations in the future, to build on those that have been received since the creation of the team in October 2019.

Plans for future periods

The free reserves of the Trust Funds remain at a minimum level; scholarships are generally equal to the value of the annual income generated and the donation from the Inn. Further growth in the value of scholarships will necessitate continued fundraising to generate a larger investment pool or an increase in the financial support provided by the Inn.

6

THE CHARITIES ADMINISTERED ICW THE HONOURABLE SOCIETY OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT & FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

The Trust Funds rely heavily on the generosity of the Inn for financial support to its scholarship awards. The Inn is entering a period where its financial resources will come under pressure. The Inn continues its commitment to ensuring that a combination of income sources from Investments and the annual grant from the Inn enable the Trust Funds to maintaining the existing levels of grant giving.

In September 2020, details of an extremely generous bequest from the estate of the late Master Pat Edwards, the former chair of the Scholarships & Prizes Committee, were received. The legacy was of benefit to the Middle Temple Scholarship Fund and to the Sir Paul Jenkins’ Fund. £750k was received in 2020 for each fund. In 2021, further £787.5k was received for each of those two funds. This a remarkable gift that will make a very great difference to beneficiaries in the years to come.

Risk management

The major risks to which the charity is exposed, as identified by the Trustees, are reviewed annually and systems or procedures have been established to manage those risks. The Trustees have identified four categories of ‘major risk’: Governance, Operational, Financial, and Environmental. The risks identified as ‘red’, i.e. being the most serious that the Trusts face, are as follows: -

  1. The loss of key staff employed by the Inn and who carry out the management of the Trusts on behalf of the Trustees. This is mitigated by the establishment of documented processes/procedures; in-house training of staff; and extended notice periods for senior staff in order to be able to source an appropriate replacement.

  2. Dependency on income sources. The Inn very generously supports its Trust Funds with a substantial annual donation. The Inn is committed to its financial support, however, as noted above, the next years will be financially challenging for the Inn. The Inn intends to support the Trust Funds as fully as its resources will allow. In addition, the Inn has appointed a new Development Team, which has been in place since the Autumn of 2019. Its role will include to fundraise for the Trust Funds.

  3. Lack of effective fundraising. The fundraising activities should be able to generate sufficient funds to justify the costs, particularly the employment costs, that are incurred by the Inn. This is relevant as the overall staff overhead of the Inn may have an impact on how much funds are available for the annual grant to the Trust Funds. The Trustees are aware of the fundraising strategy drawn up by the recently established Development Department and are updated on the fundraising initiatives taken. The Trustees are also aware that sustainable fundraising activity may require a certain amount of time to bear fruit.

  4. The portfolio is managed with the long-term objective of a balanced return within a medium risk profile, although the income generated is maximised so as to minimise the grant from the Middle Temple to support the level of scholarships awarded. This risk is managed by limiting the discretionary powers of the professional investment managers and regular monitoring of their performance.

Structure, Governance, and Management

The Charities Administered in connection with The Honourable Society of the Middle Temple (the “Trust Funds”) represents a collection of diverse funds grouped together under a scheme approved by The Charity Commission on 3 September 1975 and is a charity registered in England & Wales, number 314246. On 24 July 2003, the Charity Commission confirmed the registration of The Middle Temple Scholarship Fund as a subsidiary of the original registration.

The Funds originally grouped together were: Alfred Harmsworth Memorial Fund, Middle Temple Benefactors’ Fund, The Astbury Scholarship Fund, Chrystal Macmillan Memorial Fund, Middle Temple Colombos Trust, JB Montague Memorial Trust Fund, The Charity of Constantine John Colombos, Helena Normanton Prize, Robert Garraway Rice Pupillage Prizes, Middle Temple Archibald Safford Trust.

Subsequently, new Funds were established and included within the scheme. The new Funds are: Lord Justice Sachs Entrance Exhibition, Jules Thorn Fund, Lintern Award, The Joseph Jackson Memorial Fund, The Queen Mother’s Scholarships & Awards Fund, The Middle Temple Scholarship Fund.

A Marshalling Bursaries/Access to the Bar Fund was added in 2010 and awards were made to students from 2011 onwards. A Readers’ Essay Prize Fund was approved by resolution of the Trustees during 2012. The ‘Readers’ Essay Prize’ was converted to the ‘Readers’ Scholarship’ with effect from 4 February 2015. The underlying prize fund was also at this time reclassified as an Unrestricted Income Fund and subsumed within the Middle Temple Scholarship Fund, following approval of the change by the donor of the original fund. In 2016 the Mc Mullen restricted income fund was stablished. In 2018, after the untimely death of Sir Paul Jenkins, a restricted income fund was set up on his memory.

The Trustees are appointed by the Treasurer on behalf of the Benchers of the Inn. They meet at least twice each year and ensure that the policy objectives of each Fund are met in accordance with the individual schemes of administration. They also consider investment performance and risk management policies and procedures. Each year the Trustees’ report and financial statements are published to the Inn and considered by its Finance & Resources Committee. Training is available for Trustees on an ongoing basis; professional advisers attend meetings and provide training on specific issues upon which the Trustees are required to make decisions, e.g., investment strategy, accounting changes, etc. Training also takes place upon the induction of new Trustees.

All Trustees give of their time freely and approve strategic and policy matters; day-to-day management is delegated to the relevant Inn’s staff. These staff provide their services free to the Trust Funds. No Trustee remuneration was paid in the year. The selection of recipients for awards is delegated to the Scholarships & Prizes Sub-committee of the Inn. Training is undertaken for those members of the Sub-committee who sit on the Award Panels; these meet during Easter each year and interview all scholarship applicants.

The investments of the individual Trust Funds are pooled under a Charity Commission approved scheme. The management of the pool is delegated to the Investment Sub-committee of the Inn; one of the Trustees, generally the Chairman, is a member of this Sub-committee. The Sub-committee meets on a quarterly basis and considers the report on portfolio performance produced by the Investment Manager.

THE CHARITIES ADMINISTERED ICW THE HONOURABLE SOCIETY OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT & FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

In order to better co-ordinate the income generation and expenditure arms of the Trust Funds, the Inn’s Director of Education Services (representing the scholarship awards activity) and the Associate Director of Development (representing fundraising activity) attend meetings of the Trustees.

COVID-19

The annual report and financial statements are approved during a period where there is a great deal of uncertainty as a result of the emergence and international spread of a coronavirus (COVID-19). The Trustee’s response has been to implement its contingency planning arrangements for such circumstances.

Acting for the benefit of the Trust Funds, the Inn’s Education department was able to organise the Scholarship interviews, which took place remotely and 2020 awards have been granted. The fluctuations in the value of the investment portfolio has been monitored closely. The Clapham properties are tenanted and managed by a third-party property company. Tenants have been given some flexibility to delay payments for rents, which they are now repaying in instalments. Given the impact of the pandemic on the economy, it is estimated that the fundraising targets for 2020 will not be met. The Inn’s Development team continues to research potential donors and approach them where appropriate.

The ultimate impact of COVID-19 on the world, the United Kingdom, the economy (both global and national), and the Inn is yet to be seen with any measure of certainty. The response of HM Government to the pandemic has been unprecedented and is an indication of the extreme effects the outbreak will have on the domestic economy.

Through appropriate consideration of risks as part of its normal risk management processes and mitigating actions, both already taken and available to be taken, the Trustees consider that it is appropriate for the ‘going concern’ basis to be adopted for these financial statements.

The Trustees continues to monitor the operational landscape and its impact on assets and related income.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE CHARITIES ADMINISTERED IN CONNECTION WITH THE HONOURABLE SOCIETY OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of The Charities Administered ICW the Honourable Society of the Middle Temple for the year ended 31 December 2020 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, 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 have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder. 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 Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity 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

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 [group/charity] '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 Trustees’ Report. 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

11

THE CHARITIES ADMINISTERED ICW THE HONOURABLE SOCIETY OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT & FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees for the financial statements

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 10, the trustees 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 trustees determine is 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 trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’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 trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s 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 an auditor’s report 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:

Based on our understanding of the charity and the environment in which it operates, we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Charities Act 2011.

We evaluated management’s incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls). Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included:

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and regulations made under section 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an Auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity’s trustees as a body for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Notes to the Financial Statements

Note 1: ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements, and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

The Charities Administered ICW The Honourable Society of the Middle Temple is a charity registered in England & Wales (charity registration number 314246) and meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. The principal office is located at The Treasury Offices, Ashley Building, Middle Temple Lane, London. EC4Y 9BT.

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s).

Preparation of accounts on a ‘going concern’ basis

The Trustees consider there are no material uncertainties about the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The review of our financial position, reserves levels, and future plans gives Trustees confidence that the charity remains a ‘going concern’ for the foreseeable future.

Critical accounting judgements and estimates

In preparing these financial statements, management has made judgements, estimates, and assumptions that affect the application of the charity’s accounting policies and the reported assets, liabilities, income and expenditure, and the disclosures made in the financial statements. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The Trustees have relied on the professional skill and judgment of third-party property valuation experts for the annual revaluation of the investment properties.

Income recognition

All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to that income, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

Donations and legacies

Donations and gifts are included in full in the Statement of Comprehensive Income when the entitlement, probability of receipt, and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

17

THE CHARITIES ADMINISTERED ICW THE HONOURABLE SOCIETY OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT & FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

Gifts in kind

Gifts in kind represent assets donated for distribution or use by the charity. Assets given for distribution are recognised as income only when distributed. Assets given for use by the charity are recognised when receivable. Gifts in kind are valued at the amount actually realised from the disposal of the assets or at the price the charity would otherwise have paid for the assets. The services provided by the Trustees and accounting services provided by The Honourable Society of the Middle Temple are not included within the financial statements as their value is not easily quantifiable.

Investment income

Investment income is recognised on a receivable basis once the amounts can be measured reliably.

Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:

The charity is not registered for VAT.

Expenditure is allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates directly to that activity.

Allocation of costs

The Honourable Society of the Middle Temple provides The Charities Administered ICW The Honourable Society of the Middle Temple with free administrative and support costs, including staff time. The Middle Temple Trust Funds has no employees.

Investments

Investments are a form of basic financial instruments and are initially shown in the financial statements at market value. Movements in the market values of investments are shown as unrealised gains and losses in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Profits and losses on the realisation of investments are shown as realised gains and losses in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated between sales proceeds and their opening carrying values or their purchase value if acquired subsequent to the first day of the financial year. Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between the fair value at the year end and their carrying value. Realised and unrealised investment gains and losses are combined in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Investments – Stock and Shares

Quoted investments are stated at bid value at the balance sheet date and unquoted investments are stated at estimated market value. Any gain or loss made on the investments is taken to the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

18

THE CHARITIES ADMINISTERED ICW THE HONOURABLE SOCIETY OF THE MIDDLE TEMPLE TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT & FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

Investments – Properties

Freehold land and buildings are treated as investment properties and are included in the financial statement at their latest valuation: no depreciation is provided on these assets. Increases in value over their historic cost will be included in the capital endowment funds-property reserve, whilst any decrease below historic cost will be charged to that fund. A professional revaluation is carried out annually.

Creditors and provisions

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 that obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

Debtors

Short term debtors are measured at transaction value, less any impairment.

Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

Funds

Unrestricted funds are donations and other income receivable or generated for the objects of the charity.

Restricted funds are those funds which are to be used in accordance with specific instructions imposed by the donor or trust deed.

Endowment funds represent a number of significant historic funds previously received by the Inn from a number of benefactors. The policy for these funds is to use only the income generated each year on Scholarship Awards. The Trustees are aware of the need to retain these funds as assets, for the long term delivery of the charitable purposes. The Trustees will continue to preserve the capital of these endowment funds and if possible to increase their value for the long term.

Employee benefits

There are no employees.

All funds support the award of scholarships and grants. The purpose of the awards is to help with the costs of qualifying and practising as a barrister. These costs include: course fees to gain the required academic qualifications, living expenses whilst studying, the fees of joining the Inn and the fee to be Called to the Bar. Contributions also are made towards the cost of living during the year of pupillage. All unrestricted income is used for these types of expenditure. In terms of the Restricted Income Funds, the Marshalling Bursaries/Access to the Bar provides the opportunity for undergraduate students, from non-traditional backgrounds, to acquire work experience before deciding to undertake the training for the Bar. J Mc Mullen Fund is for the same purpose as the Access to the Bar, but only for female candidates. The Sir Paul Jenkins fund is to promote diversity in the Bar. The Readers Essay Prize also supports students in qualifying for the Bar.
