## **REPORT OF THE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026** 

The Management Committee presents its report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2026. 

## **Legal Status** 

The Association is a Registered Society registered under the Co-operative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014 (No. 2191RS). The Association is governed under its Rule Book and is a Registered Scottish Charity with the charity number SC039962. The Association is registered with The Scottish Government as a Registered Property Factor, registration no. PF000231. 

The Association is a member of the Scottish Federation of Housing Associations. 

## **Principal Activities** 

The principal activity of the Association is the provision of housing for let at rents affordable to the client groups for whom it intends to provide. 

The Association became a Scottish Charity on 10 December 2002. Financial strength has been maintained which will allow our medium to long term major repairs programme to be funded as well as continuing to provide high levels of service to our tenants. 

The Association has had greater involvement in identifying and participating in Wider Action activities within our area of operation for the benefit of our tenants and the wider community. 

## **Review of Business and Future Developments** 

The Association reported a surplus of £262,159 (2025 - £231,538) and after accounting for the pension movements recorded total comprehensive gain of £357,159. 

The Association remains in a strong financial position with over £4.6m deposited as cash funds and is committed to investing in its stock. In 2026/27, CHA has an extensive programme of major improvement works planned for its properties including the replacement of windows and the upgrade of kitchens, bathrooms and rewiring. CHA has provided for considerable funds over the next five years to continue its extensive repairs programme, all of which has been costed and is incorporated into long-term financial plans, and all tenants and factored owners will receive updated personalised 5-year plans informing them of the proposed works. 

In recent years our development function has played an important part in our delivery of services, with 79 units being added to our housing stock in 2022/2023. The Management Committee remains committed to growing our stock base and therefore we continue to liaise with our West Dunbartonshire and Scottish Government colleagues to secure grant funding for other development proposals.

## **CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION LIMITED** 

## **REPORT OF THE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026** 

## **Operational Review** 

## **Corporate Governance** 

Our governing body is our Management Committee, which is elected by and is responsible to the wider membership. It is the responsibility of the Committee to determine the strategy and overall direction for the Association and its policies.  They also monitor the operational activities of the Association and set standards of service delivery. 

The Management Committee members serve in a voluntary capacity and are unpaid. We recognise that this puts even more onus on us to ensure that we set and achieve high standards of professionalism in our work. We take governance very seriously and review our Governance policies and processes regularly as well as undertaking significant training in this regard. 

The Executive Team is responsible for achieving the strategy set, undertaking the operational activities in line with the policies set. 

This report details issues that have arisen during the year relating to the main activities undertaken by the Association. 

## **Corporate Services** 

Tenant and customer involvement and participation is a major part of our Aims and Objectives and we continue to review how the Association involves tenants and customers in its activities, ensuring that tenants and residents have access to digital devices and assisting with digital connectivity.  The Association is committed to involving tenants in decision-making and policymaking ensuring Scottish Housing Regulator (SHR) governance compliance as well as meeting the requirements of the Scottish Social Housing Charter (SSHC). This includes continued customer engagement (focus groups, events, surveys and a productive relationship with our registered tenants’ organisation) and performance reporting. 

## **Performance Management** 

Service delivery is underpinned by staff performance.  This continues to be a high priority for us. We continue to invest in our staff in terms of provision and access to training opportunities in order to ensure that a high level of performance is maintained. 

## **Best use of resources and Asset Management** 

We regularly conduct risk assessments and take any action necessary to reduce or limit risk.  We have continued with a programme of major investment in our housing stock, which is by far our most costly asset, in line with our Asset Management Strategy which was created in December 2018 and reviewed and updated in January 2025. This includes carrying out both major repair and cyclical repairs and also considering whether any of our schemes should be improved further to meet the changing requirements of tenants in the future. 

We regularly update our stock condition information, with a recent detailed survey carried out in February 2026 to ensure that our long-term financial planning reflects our future investment requirements. We will continue to review the stock condition survey plans and ensure they are accurate and fully costed in line with the Association’s Business and Financial Plans.

## **CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION LIMITED** 

## **REPORT OF THE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026** 

## **Services** 

The Association provides a full range of property management to tenants and factored owners involving reactive, planned and cyclical maintenance. The Association continually assesses and invests in its stock to ensure that it is of good quality, remains desirable and meets regulatory standards. We do this by maximising the use of our IT systems, maintaining accurate information and by continually assessing our stock through regular inspections and by carrying out physical stock condition surveys. 

The Association remains committed to ensuring that any ongoing major repairs investment programmes are delivered safely and without any prolonged delays. To assist in this area, we will be implementing a new programmed repairs module within our IT system and have employed an Asset Management Assistant to prioritise the data and details required to progress major repair works programmes. 

The general cost of living continues to present a challenge to our tenants, and as a result we continue to channel resources into assisting our tenants with these issues.  Our patch-based Housing Management setup, combined with our ongoing Community Support programme has assisted us in being able to help tenants in need remain in their homes and pay their rent. As a result, we have been further able to reduce our gross rent arrears figure during the year.  As of 31 March 2026, our gross arrears figure stood at 2.14% (£133,288), down from 2.48% (£139,971) the previous year.  This figure compares favourably when measured against our district, national, and peer group benchmarking figures which vary from 3.97% to 6.17%. 

Our continued commitment to also ringfence around c.£4k per annum in tenancy support funding further outlines our commitment to our tenants during these difficult times. 

The continuing financial uncertainty means that rent arrears will remain a key concern for the Association, with a continuing emphasis on support and assistance for its tenants.  The welfare rights service offered by Citizens Advice Scotland and our Community Support project will be crucial in assisting tenants during the coming year, and resources will continue to be assessed as required in order to try and prevent arrears increasing. 

## **Housing Issues** 

The Association has worked hard during the year to maintain the period of time taken to re-let properties. During 2025/26, we had an average letting time of 9.95 calendar days, which although slightly up, compares favourably with the 9.37 calendar days achieved during the previous year.  Similarly, our void loss figure at 0.13%, remains consistent with the 0.13% achieved the previous year.  We hope to maintain this success, and where possible, further improve performance in these areas in the year ahead. 

## **Wider Role and Centre81** 

Our wider role services delivered from Centre81 continue to support the wellbeing of our tenants, other customers and the community in general, who are still experiencing immediate and real difficulties as a result of the ongoing effects of the cost-of-living crisis. We will continue to access any available funding and our staff, volunteers and local partners will strive to assist the people who need help.

## **CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION LIMITED** 

## **REPORT OF THE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026** 

## **Other Areas** 

## **Risk Management Policy** 

Risk management is linked directly to the fulfilment of our strategic objectives. The Committee has a formal risk management process to assess business risks and implement risk management strategies. This involves identifying the types of risks the Association faces, prioritising them in terms of potential impact and likelihood of occurrence, and identifying means of mitigating the risks. As part of this process the Committee review the adequacy of the Association’s current internal controls. 

The Association has recently improved its Disaster Recovery Procedure into a more robust Business Continuity Plan which incorporates contingency planning and stress testing. 

The Management Committee has set policies on internal controls and has overall responsibility for the Association. 

## **Treasury Management** 

The Association has a robust treasury management function, which operates in accordance with a Treasury Management Policy and an Investment Strategy both approved by the Management Committee. The Treasury Management Policy has been updated in November 2024 in a manner that complies with best practice, as set out in the CIPFA Code of Practice for Treasury Management in the Public Services (the Code) and in line with the expectations of the Scottish Housing Regulator (SHR) as set out in the Standards of Governance and Financial Management. 

The Association recognises the importance of cash management and the administration and compliance with the terms set out in its loans with current lenders, Clydesdale Bank, Energy Savings Trust and CAF Bank. The Association manages its borrowing arrangements to ensure that it is always in a position to meet its financial obligations as they fall due, whilst minimising excess cash and liquid resources held. 

## **Ethical Investment and Corporate Social Responsibility** 

In addition to ensuring that the Association’s financial assets are safeguarded, and financial risks are identified and managed in accordance with the objectives of CHA, the Management Committee’s approach also considers ethical investing and corporate social responsibility. This is done by placing the Association’s treasury management functions with approved institutions who share similar customer-led values and commitment to ethics wherever possible. 

## **Maintenance policies** 

The Association seeks to maintain its properties to the highest standard. To this end, programmes of cyclical repairs are carried out in the medium term to deal with the gradual and predictable deterioration of building components.  It is expected that the cost of all these repairs would be charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income. 

In addition, the Association has a long-term programme of major repairs to cover for works which have become necessary since the original developments were completed, including works required by subsequent legislative changes.  This includes replacement or repairs to features of the properties, which have come to the end of their economic lives. A review of our 30-year major repair programmes will be carried over the coming year to incorporate EESSH2 targets and stock condition survey information carried out over the past 5 years. These programmes will be further reviewed after any updated guidance has been released.

## **CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION LIMITED** 

## **REPORT OF THE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026** 

## **Procurement** 

The Association is committed to ensuring best value for money and quality of service when securing contracts and purchasing goods and services. Value for money is embedded in our Rent Setting mechanisms, Business Plan, Financial projections and objectives. The Association aims to ensure that value for money is applied throughout all activities and is detailed in the Value for Money Strategy. 

## **Internal Financial Control** 

The Management Committee is responsible for establishing and maintaining the Association’s system of internal control. Internal control systems are designed to meet the particular needs of the Association and the risks to which it is exposed, and by their nature can provide reasonable but not absolute assurance against material misstatement or loss. The key procedures which the Committee of Management has established with a view to providing effective internal financial are outlined on page 9. 

## **Management Structure** 

The Management Committee has overall responsibility for the Association and there is a formal schedule of matters specifically reserved for decision by the Committee. 

## **Quality and Integrity of Personnel** 

The integrity and competence of personnel are ensured through high recruitment standards and subsequent training courses. High quality personnel are seen as an essential part of the control environment and the ethical standards expected are communicated through the Chief Executive Officer. 

## **Budgetary Process** 

Each year the Management Committee approves the annual budget and rolling five-year strategic plan. Key risk areas are identified. Performance is monitored and relevant action taken throughout the year through quarterly reporting to the Committee of variances from the budget, updated forecasts for the year together with information on the key risk areas. Approval procedures are in place in respect of major areas of risk such as major contract tenders, expenditure and treasury management. 

## **Rental Income** 

The Association's Rent Policy is clear and transparent and is based on the size, type and makeup of the accommodation. The policy ensures that the rent structure is easy to administer and covers the different types of properties owned by the Association. This policy follows the generally accepted practice/principles of most Housing Associations and is reviewed annually. 

## **Employee Involvement and Health & Safety** 

The Association encourages employee involvement in all major initiatives including the development of key operational risk assessments. 

## **Disabled Employees** 

Applications for employment by disabled persons are given full and fair consideration for all vacancies in accordance with their particular aptitudes and abilities.  An interview is guaranteed to all those applicants who meet the minimum criteria. In the event of employees becoming disabled, every effort is made to re-train them and to identify and implement required adjustments in order that their employment with the Association may continue. It is the policy of the Association that training, career development and promotion opportunities should be available to all employees.

## **REPORT OF THE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026** 

## **Property Purchases** 

During the year to 31 March 2026, the Association bought back 1 shared ownership property. 

## **Management Committee and Executive Officers** 

The members of the Management Committee and the Executive officers are listed on page 1. 

Each member of the Management Committee holds one fully paid share of £1 in the Association. The Executive Officers hold no interest in the Association’s share capital and, although not having the legal status of directors, they act as executives within the authority delegated by the Management Committee. 

The members of the Management Committee are also trustees of the charity. Members of the Management Committee are appointed by the members at the Association’s Annual General Meeting. 

## **Statement of Management Committee’s Responsibilities** 

The Co-operative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014 requires the Management Committee to prepare financial statements for each financial year that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Association and of the surplus or deficit of the Association for that period. In preparing those financial statements the Management Committee is required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

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

- prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Association will continue in business; and 

- prepare a statement on internal financial control. 

The Management Committee is responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Association and to enable them to: ensure that the financial statements comply with the Co-operative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014, the Housing (Scotland) Act 2010 and the Determination of Accounting Requirements 2024. It is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Association and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. It is also responsible for ensuring the Association’s suppliers are paid promptly. 

## **Going Concern** 

Based on its budgetary and forecasting processes the Management Committee has a reasonable expectation that the Association has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future; therefore, it continues to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.

## **CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION LIMITED** 

## **REPORT OF THE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026** 

## **Statement on Internal Financial Control** 

The Management Committee acknowledges its ultimate responsibility for ensuring that the Association has in place a system of controls that is appropriate for the business environment in which it operates. These controls are designed to give reasonable assurance with respect to: 

- the reliability of financial information used within the Association, or for publication; 

- the maintenance of proper accounting records; 

- the safeguarding of assets against unauthorised use or disposition. 

It is the Management Committee’s responsibility to establish and maintain systems of internal financial control. Such systems can only provide reasonable and not absolute assurance against material financial misstatement or loss. Key elements of the Association’s systems include ensuring that: 

- formal policies and procedures are in place, including the ongoing documentation of key systems and rules relating to the delegation of authority, which allow the monitoring of controls and restrict the unauthorised use of Association’s assets; 

- experienced and suitably qualified staff take responsibility for important business functions and annual appraisal procedures have been established to maintain standards of performance; 

- forecasts and budgets are prepared which allow the management team and the Management Committee to monitor key business risks, financial objectives and the progress being made towards achieving the financial plans set for the year and for the medium term; 

- quarterly financial management reports are prepared promptly, providing relevant, reliable and up to date financial and other information, with significant variances from budget being investigated as appropriate; 

- regulatory returns are prepared, authorised and submitted promptly to the relevant regulatory bodies; 

- all significant new initiatives, major commitments and investment projects are subject to formal authorisation procedures, through the Management Committee; 

- the Management Committee receives reports from management and from the external and internal auditors to provide reasonable assurance that control procedures are in place and are being followed and that a general review of the major risks facing the Association is undertaken; 

- formal procedures have been established for instituting appropriate action to correct any weaknesses identified through internal or external audit reports. 

The Management Committee has reviewed the effectiveness of the system of internal financial control in existence in the Association for the year end 31 March 2026. No weaknesses were found in the internal financial controls which resulted in material losses, contingencies or uncertainties which require disclosure in the financial statements or in the auditor’s report on the financial statements. 

## **Donations** 

During the year the Association made charitable donations of £502 (2025 - £1,020). 

## **Disclosure of Information to the Auditor** 

The members of the Management Committee at the date of approval of these financial statements have confirmed, as far as they are aware, that there is no relevant information of which the auditors are unaware. They confirm that they have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that it has been communicated to the auditors. 

## **Auditor** 

A resolution to reappoint the Auditors, TC Group, will be proposed at the Annual General Meeting.

## **CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION LIMITED** 

## **REPORT BY THE AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION ON CORPORATE GOVERNANCE MATTERS** 

In addition to our audit of the financial statements, we have reviewed your statement on page 9 concerning the Association’s compliance with the information required by the Regulatory Standards in respect of internal financial controls contained in the publication “Our Regulatory Framework” and associated Regulatory Advice Notes which are issued by the Scottish Housing Regulator. 

## **Basis of Opinion** 

We carried out our review having regard to the requirements to corporate governance matters within Bulletin 2006/5 issued by the Financial Reporting Council. The Bulletin does not require us to review the effectiveness of the Association’s procedures for ensuring compliance with the guidance notes, nor to investigate the appropriateness of the reason given for non-compliance. 

## **Opinion** 

In our opinion the Statement of Internal Financial Control  on page 9 has provided the disclosures required by the relevant Regulatory Standards within the publication “Our Regulatory Framework” and associated Regulatory Advice Notes issued by the Scottish Housing Regulator in respect of internal financial controls and is consistent with the information which came to our attention as a result of our audit work on the financial statements. 

Through enquiry of certain members of the Management Committee and Officers of the Association and examination of relevant documents, we have satisfied ourselves that the Management Committee’s Statement on Internal Financial Control appropriately reflects the Association’s compliance with the information required by the relevant Regulatory Standards in respect of internal financial controls contained within the publication “Our Regulatory Framework” and associated Regulatory Advice Notes issued by the Scottish Housing Regulator in respect of internal financial controls.

## **CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION LIMITED** 

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION LIMITED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026** 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of Clydebank Housing Association Limited (the ‘Association’) for the year ended 31 March 2026 which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, Statement of Financial Position, Statement of Cash Flows, Statement of Changes in Equity and related notes, 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: 

- give a true and fair view of the state of the Association’s affairs as at 31 March 2026 and of the surplus for the year then ended; 

- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and 

- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Co-operative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014, the Housing (Scotland) Act 2010 and the Determination of Accounting Requirements 2024. 

## **Basis of Opinion** 

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 Association in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council’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 audit opinion. 

## **Conclusions relating to going concern** 

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Management Committee 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 Association’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 Management Committee with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. 

## **Other Information** 

The Management Committee is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information contained in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. 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.

## **CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION LIMITED** 

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION LIMITED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026 (continued)** 

## **Other Information (Contd.)** 

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 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 where the Co-operative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014 require us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- proper books of account have not been kept by the Association in accordance with the requirements of the legislation; 

- a satisfactory system of control over transactions has not been maintained by the Association in accordance with the requirements of the legislation; 

- the Statement of Comprehensive Income and Statement of Financial Position are not in agreement with the books of account of the Association; or 

- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. 

## **Responsibilities of the Management Committee** 

As explained more fully in the statement of Management Committee’s responsibilities as set out on page 8, the Management Committee is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Management Committee determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial statements, the Management Committee is responsible for assessing the Association’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 Management Committee either intend to liquidate the Association 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.

## **CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION LIMITED** 

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION LIMITED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026 (continued)** 

**The extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities including fraud** Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows: 

- the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations; 

- we gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the Association through discussions with the Management Committee and other management, and from our wider knowledge and experience of the RSL sector; 

- we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the Association, including the Cooperative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014 (and related regulations), the Housing (Scotland) Act 2010 and other laws and regulations applicable to a registered social housing provider in Scotland. We also considered the risks of non-compliance with the other requirements imposed by the Scottish Housing Regulator and we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. 

- we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence; and 

- identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit. 

We assessed the susceptibility of the Association’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by: 

- making enquiries of as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; and 

- considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. 

To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we: 

- performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships; 

- tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions; 

- assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates set out in Note 1 were indicative of potential bias; and 

- investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions. 

In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to: 

- agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation; 

- reviewing the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; 

- enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims; and 

- reviewing the Association's Assurance Statement and associated supporting information.

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION LIMITED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026 (continued)** 

**The extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities including fraud (Contd.)** 

There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of noncompliance.  Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the Directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. 

Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion. 

## **Description of the 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 aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of the users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 

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

## **Use of our Report** 

This report is made solely to the Association's members as a body, in accordance with Part 7 of the Cooperative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Association's members 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 Association and the Association's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

**CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION** 

## **FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## **1. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Statement of Compliance and Basis of Accounting** 

These financial statements were prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Statement of Recommended Practice for social housing providers 2018. The Association is a Public Benefit Entity in terms of its compliance with Financial Reporting Standard 102, applicable for accounting periods on or after 1 January 2019. They comply with the Determination of Accounting Requirements 2024. A summary of the principal accounting policies is set out below. 

## **Revenue** 

Revenue comprises rental and service charge income receivable in the period, income from shared ownership first tranche sales, sales of properties built for sale, other services provided, revenue grants receivable and government grants released to income in the period. 

The Association recognises rent receivable net of losses from voids. Service Charge Income (net of voids) is recognised with expenditure as it is incurred as this is considered to be the point when the service has been performed and the revenue recognition criteria is met. 

Government grants are released to income over the expected useful life of the asset to which they relate. Revenue grants are receivable when the conditions for receipt of the agreed grant funding have been met. 

## **Retirement Benefits** 

The Association previously participated in the Scottish Housing Association Pension Scheme (SHAPS) a multi-employer defined benefit scheme where retirement benefits to employees of the Association are funded by the contributions from all participating employers and employees in the Scheme. Payments are made in accordance with periodic calculations by consulting Actuaries and are based on pension costs applicable across the various participating organisations taken as a whole. The Association accounts for this scheme as a defined benefit pension scheme in accordance with FRS 102. The Association moved to the SHAPS defined contribution scheme on leaving the defined benefit scheme. Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. 

## **Going Concern** 

On the basis that the Management Committee has a reasonable expectation that the Association has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, the Association has adopted the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these financial statements. 

## **Basis of Consolidation** 

The Association has obtained exemption from the Fianncial Conduct Authority from producing Consolidated Financial Statements as provided by Section 14(2A) of the Friendly and Industrial and Provident Societies Act 1968. The financial statements for Clydebank Housing Association Limited present information about it as an individual undertaking and not about the group.

## **CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION** 

**FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** (continued) 

## **1. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES** (continued.) 

## **Housing Properties** 

Housing properties are held for the provision of social housing. Housing properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Cost includes acquisition of land and buildings and development cost. The Association depreciates housing properties over the useful life of each major component. Housing under construction and land are not depreciated. 

|_Component_|_Useful Economic Life_|
|---|---|
|Structure|Over 50 years|
|Kitchen|Over 20 years|
|Bathroom|Over 25 years|
|Gas Boiler|Over 15 years|
|Radiator & Pipe Work|Over 30 years|
|Electric Heating|Over 25 years|
|Rewiring|Over 30 years|
|Ventilation units|Over 10 years|
|Door entry system|Over 15 years|
|Lifts|Over 10 years|
|Heating system|Over 10 years|
|Doors & Windows|Over 20 years|
|Emergency Lights|Over 10 years|
|MSF Water System|Over 50 years|



## **Depreciation and Impairment of Other Tangible Assets** 

Non-current assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is charged over the expected economic useful lives of the assets at the following annual rates: 

|_Asset Category_|_Depreciation Rate_|
|---|---|
||Depreciation is in line|
||with the components|
||above except Doors &|
||Windows which is|
||depreciated over 30|
|Office Premises|years.|
|Furniture and Fittings|Over 5 years|
|Computer Equipment|Over 3 years|
|Office Equipment|Over 5 years|
|Electric Motor Vehicles|Over 5 years|



The carrying values of non-current assets are reviewed for impairment at the end of each reporting period. 

## **Social Housing Grants and Other Capital Grants** 

Social housing grants and other capital grants are accounted for using the Accrual Method as outlined in Section 24 of Financial Reporting Standard 102. Grants are treated as deferred income and recognised in income on a systematic basis over the expected useful life of the property and assets to which they relate. 

Social housing grant attributed to individual components is written off to the statement of comprehensive income when these components are replaced. 

Although social housing grant is treated as a grant for accounting purposes, it may nevertheless become repayable in certain circumstances, such as the disposal of certain assets. The amount repayable would be restricted to the net proceeds of sale. 

In respect of the Allia donation,  it may become repayable if any of the properties which it contributed towards are subsequently disposed. Allia shall be entitled to the proceeds of any disposal up to the value of the donation.

## **CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION** 

## **FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026** 

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** (Continued) 

**1PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES** (continued.) 

## **Sales Of Housing Properties** 

First tranche Shared Ownership disposals are credited to turnover on completion. The cost of construction of these sales is taken to operating cost. In accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice, disposals of subsequent tranches are treated as non-current asset disposals with the gain or loss on disposal shown in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. 

Disposals under shared equity schemes are accounted for in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. The remaining equity in the property is treated as a non-current asset investment, which is matched with the grant  received. 

## **Taxation** 

The Association is a Scottish Charity and is not liable to taxation on its charitable activities. 

## **Leases** 

Costs in respect of operating leases are charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income on a straight line basis over the lease term. Assets held under finance leases and hire purchase contracts are capitalised in the Statement of Financial Position and are depreciated over their useful lives or the term of the lease whichever is shorter. 

## **Works to Existing Properties** 

The Association capitalises major repairs expenditure where these works result in an enhancement of economic benefits by increasing the net rental stream over the life of the property, a material reduction in future maintenance costs, or a significant extention of the life of the property. 

## **Capitalisation Of Development Overheads** 

Directly attributable development administration costs relating to ongoing development activities are capitalised. 

## **Borrowing Costs** 

Interest incurred on financing a development is capitalised up to the date of practical completion of the scheme. All other borrowing costs are expensed to the statement of comprehensive income using the effective interest rate method. 

## **Property Development Cost** 

The proportion of the development cost of shared ownership properties expected to be disposed of as a first tranche sale is held in current assets until it is disposed of. The remaining part of the development cost is treated as a non-current asset. Surpluses made on the disposal of first tranche sales are taken to the Statement of Comprehensive Income. 

Property developments that are intended for resale are included in current assets until disposal. 

## **VAT** 

The Association were VAT registered up to 31st December 2019. The substantial proportion of its income was exempt for VAT purposes. As a result most of the VAT paid was not recovered and therefore expenditure is shown inclusive of VAT.

## **CLYDEBANK HOUSING ASSOCIATION** 

## **FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026** 

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** (Continued) 

## **1. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES** (Continued.) 

## **Financial Instruments - Basic** 

The Association classes all of its loans as basic financial instruments including agreements with break clauses. The Association recognises basic financial instruments in accordance with Section 11 of Financial Reporting Standard 102. 

The Association's debt instruments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. 

## **Cash and Liquid Resources** 

Cash comprises cash at bank and in hand, deposits repayable on demand less overdrafts. Liquid resources are current asset investments that can't be disposed of without penalty and are readily convertible into amounts of cash at their carrying value. 

## **Impairment** 

The Association asseses at the end of each accounting period whether there are indications that a non-current asset may be impaired or that an impairment loss previously recognised has fully or partially reversed. 

Where the carrying value of non-current assets is less that their recoverable amounts the shortfall is recognised as an impairment loss in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. The recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and value-in-use of the asset based on its service potential. 

Impairment losses previously recognised are reversed if the reasons for the impairment loss have ceased to apply. Reversals of impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. 

## **Key Judgements and estimates made in the application of Accounting Policies** 

The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain accounting judgements and accounting estimates. It also requires the the Association to exercise judgement in applying the it's accounting policies. The areas requiring a higher degree of judgement, or complexity, and areas where assumptions or estimates are most signficant to the financial statements are disclosed below. 

## **Key Judgements** 

## _**a) Categorisation of Housing Properties**_ 

In the judgement of the 168 Bath Street the entirety of the Association's housing stock is held for social benefit and is therefore classified as Property, Plant and Equipment in accordance with FRS 102. 

## _**b) Identification of cash generating units**_ 

The  168 Bath Street considers its cash-generating units to be the schemes in which it manages its housing property for asset management purposes.

## **1. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES** (continued.) 

## **Key Judgements and estimates made in the application of Accounting Policies (Continued)** 

## _**c) Financial instrument break clauses**_ 

The Management Committee has considered the break clauses attached to the financial instruments that it has in place for its loan funding. In their judgement these break clauses do not cause the financial instrument to be classified as a complex financial instrument and therefore they meet the definition of a basic financial instrument. 

## _**d) Pension Liability**_ 

The Association participates in a defined benefit pension scheme arrangement with the Scottish Housing Association Pension Scheme. The fund is administered by the Pensions Trust. The Pension Trust have developed a method of calculating each member's share of the assets and liabilities of the scheme. The Association has decided that this method is appropriate and provides a reasonable estimate of the pension assets and liabilities of the Association and has therefore adopted this valuation method. Judgements relating to the benefits issue are included in Note 28. 

## _**e) Valuation of investment in subsidiary**_ 

The Association assesses the recoverability of its investment in its subsidiary with reference to the subsidiary’s net asset value and assessment of the financial projections of the subsidiary.  The projections will be subject to a number of external factors and assumptions. Based on the assessment management considers the carrying value of the investment to be recoverable. 

## **Estimation Uncertainty** 

## _**a) Rent Arrears - Bad Debt Provision**_ 

The Association assesses the recoverability of rent arrears through a detailed assessment process which considers tenant payment history, arrangements in place and court action. 

## _**b) Life Cycle of Components**_ 

The Association estimates the useful lives of major components of its housing property with reference to surveys carried out by external qualified surveyors. 

## _**c) Useful life of properties, plant and equipment**_ 

The Association assesses the useful life of its properties, plant and equipment and estimates the annual charge to be depreciated based on this assessment. 

## _**d) Costs of shared ownership**_ 

The Association allocates costs to shared ownership properties on an percentage basis split across the number of properties the Association owns. 

## _**e) Defined pension liability**_ 

In determining the value of the Association's share of defined benefit pension scheme assets and obligations, the valuation prepared by the Scheme actuary includes estimates of life expectancy, salary growth, inflation and the discount rate on corporate bonds. 

## _**f) Allocation of share of assets and liailities for multi employer schemes**_ 

Judgements in respect of the assets and liabilities to be recognised are based upon source information provided by administrators of the multi employer pension schemes and estimations performed by the Pensions Trust.

## **18. RETIREMENT BENEFIT OBLIGATIONS** 

## **Scottish Housing Association Pension Scheme** 

Clydebank Housing Association participated in the Scottish Housing Association Pension Scheme (the Scheme), a multi-employer scheme which provides benefits to some 150 non-associated employers. The Scheme is a defined benefit scheme in the UK. 

The Association moved to a defined contribution scheme in 1 April 2014 but has a net liability for the past service deficit in the defined benefit scheme. 

The scheme is subject to the funding legislation outlined in the Pensions Act 2004 which came into force on 30 December 2005. This, together with documents issued by the Pensions Regulator and Technical Actuarial Standards issued by the Financial Reporting Council, set out the framework for funding defined benefit occupational pensions schemes in the UK. 

The last triennial valuation of the scheme for funding purposes was carried out as at 30 September 2024. This valuation revealed a deficit of £79.5m. A Recovery Plan was put in place to eliminate the deficit which runs to 31 March 2030.For accounting purposes, a valuation of the scheme is carried out with an effective date of 30 September each year. The liability figures from this valuation are rolled forward for accounting year-ends from the following 31 March to 28 February inclusive. The latest accounting valuation was carried out with an effective date of 30 September 2025. The liability figures from this valuation were rolled forward for accounting year-ends from the following 31 March 2026 to 28 February 2027 inclusive. The liabilities are compared, at the relevant accounting date, with the company’s fair share of the Scheme’s total assets to calculate the company’s net deficit or surplus. 

The Scheme is classified as a 'last-man standing arrangement'. Therefore the company is potentially liable for other participating employers' obligations if those employers are unable to meet their share of the scheme deficit following withdrawal from the Scheme. Participating employers are legally required to meet their share of the Scheme deficit on an annuity purchase basis on withdrawal from the Scheme.

## **FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)** 

## **28 CONTINGENT LIABILITY** 

We have been notified by the Trustee of the Scheme that it has performed a review of the changes made to the Scheme’s benefits over the years and the result is that there is uncertainty surrounding some of these changes. The Trustee has been advised to seek clarification from the Court on these items. This process is ongoing and the matter is unlikely to be resolved before the end of June 2026 at the earliest. It is recognised that this could potentially impact the value of Scheme liabilities, but until Court directions are received, it is not possible to calculate the impact of this issue, particularly on an individual employer basis, with any accuracy at this time. No adjustment has been made in these financial statements in respect of this potential issue.
