Independent Examiner's Report For The Year Ended 30 September 2022

Independent Examiner's Report to the Council of The Glasgow Institute of Architects

I report on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 30 September 2022 which are set out on pages 5 to 14.

Respective responsibilities of trustee and examiner

The Charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. (as amended).

The Charity trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1)(a) to (c) of the 2006 Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under section 44 (1)(c) of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiner's statement

My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations.

An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeks explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.

Independent examiner's statement

In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention;

1 Which give me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respects the requirements:

to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 44(1)(a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations

to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation 8 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations

have not been met, or

2 to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statements

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Preparation of Accounts

The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention on a going concern basis, in accordance with the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice for those preparing their accounts under FRS102 (effective January 2015), the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006.

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS102.

As detailed in the Report of Council, the charity will transfer all assets, liabilities and undertakings to a SCIO in due course. As all such transfers will be made on a going concern basis, Council consider that it continues to be appropriate to prepare the financial statements on this basis.

Funds Held

The General Reserve Fund is held to promote the objects of the Institute and is unrestricted.

Other subsidiary funds are held for the purposes of benevolence, events and awards to students. and are restricted for these purposes.

Income

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

Investment Income

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity. Dividends are recognised when the charity's right to receive payment is established, measured at the fair value receivable.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. Irrecoverable vat is charged against the expenditure heading for which it was incurred.

Investments

Investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at cost. They are subsequently measured at fair value at the balance sheet date using the closing quoted market value provided by the charity's investment managers. The Statement of Financial Activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluation and disposals throughout the year.

Tangible Fixed Assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life;
