## **Statement of Select Vestry's responsibilities for the year ended 31 December 2023** 

The Select Vestry are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the Financial Statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. 

Law applicable to Charities in Northern Ireland requires the Select Vestry to prepare financial statements for each financial period which give a true and fair view of the Church's financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year.  In preparing those financial statements, the Select Vestry are required to: 

(a)  select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

(b)  make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

(c)  state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

(d)  prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Church will continue it's activities. 

The Select Vestry are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Church and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008.  They have general responsibility for taking such steps as are reasonably open to them to safeguard the assets of the Church and to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities. 

By order of the Select Vestry

## **Independent examiners' report to the members of St Elizabeth's Parish Church** 

We report on the financial statements of St Elizabeth's Parish Church for the year ended 31 December 2023 which comprise the statement of financial activities,  the balance sheet and the related notes. These financial statements have been prepared under the accounting policies set out therein. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and the examiner** 

As described in the Statement of Select Vestry Responsibilities the Select Vestry  are responsible for preparing the accounts in accordance with the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008. 

It is our responsibility to: 

- (a) Examine the accounts under section 65 of the Charities Act 

- (b) Follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Commission under section 65(9)(b) of the Charities Act 

- (c) State whether particular matters have come to our attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiners' report** 

We have examined your charity accounts as required under section 65 of the Charities Act and our examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charities Commission for Northern Ireland under section 65(9)(b) of the Charities Act. 

Our examination included a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records.  It also included consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as charity trustees concerning any such matters.  The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinsion is given as to whether the accounts present a "true and fair view" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

Our role is to state whether any material matters have come to our attention giving us cause to believe: 

1. That accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 63 of the Charities Act 

2. That the accounts do not accord with those accounting records 

3. That the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act 

4. That there is further information needed for a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. 



## **St Elizabeth's Parish Church** 

## **Independent examiners' report to the members of St Elizabeth's Parish Church continued** 

## **Independent examiners' statement** 

We have completed our examination and have no concerns in respect of the matters (1) to (4) listed above and, in connection with following the Directions of the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland, we have found no matters that require drawing to your attention.

## **Notes to the financial statements** 

## **for the year ended 31 December 2023** 

## **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: 

## **1.1. Basis of preparation** 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis 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) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

The Parish meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.  Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost and transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s). 

## **1.2. Preparation of accounts on a going concern basis** 

The Parish generally meets its day to day working capital requirements from its annual income.  The Select Vestry have obtained and reviewed cashflow forecasts for the coming year and based on these are satisfied that the Parish has resources to provide a reasonable expectation that it can continue to meet its financial obligations as they fall due for the forseeable future.  Therefore these financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. 

## **1.3. Fund accounting** 

Funds are classified as either restricted funds or unrestricted funds, defined as follows: 

Unrestricted funds are general funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Vestry in furtherance of the general objectives of the Church and have not been designated for other purposes. 

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Church for particular purposes.  The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against funds raised.

.................... continued 

## **1.4. Incoming resources** 

All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when the church is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy.  For legacies, entitlement is the earlier of the church being notified of an impending distribution or the legacy being received. 

Gifts in kind donated for distribution are included at valuation and recognised as income when they are distributed to the projects.  Gifts donated for resale are included as income when they are sold.  Donated facilities are included at the value to the church where this can be quantified and a third party is bearing the cost.  No amounts are included in the financial statements for services donated by volunteers. 

Due to the nature of the donated income, such income is not capable of control by the Church. However, financial controls are in place to ensure accurate recording and safeguarding of all income received by the Church. 

Investment income is recognised on a received basis. 

## **1.5. Resources expended** 

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. 

Costs of generating funds are those costs incurred in attracting voluntary income and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds. 

Governance costs include those incurred in the governance of its assets and are primarily associated with constitutional and statutory requirements. 

## **1.6. Tangible fixed assets and depreciation** 

Equipment is recognised at cost, and are depreciated on a straight line basis over 5 years. 

## **1.7. The Charity Commission for Northern Ireland** 

St Elizabeth's Parish Church is now registered as a charity with the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland - registration number NIC 102187.
