15 Key Findings Deloitte PowerPoint timesaver March 2011

16 Audit Findings - Accounting Performance The Trust submitted its draft and audited Annual Report and Accounts ahead of the Monitor timetable. Regular meetings have been held with management through the year. Early discussions were held to improve the efficacy and efficiency of the audit process in certain areas. The working papers produced to support the draft accounts were of a very high standard and we received full co-operation from management throughout the audit visit. Annual Governance Statement The review of the Trust s Annual Governance Statement identified no significant issues. Annual Report The Trust provided a largely complete draft of the Annual Report during the audit process, and management were keen to reflect recommendations made. Controls Findings Accounting policies and financial reporting As part of our audit, we consider the quality and acceptability of the Trust s accounting policies and financial reporting. We provided comments to the Trust on presentational matters which have been reflected in the financial statements. We did not identify any significant deficiencies in the financial reporting systems. Three recommendations were raised during the audit in relation to the IT environment. We raised four recommendations with regard to the District Valuer Service in relation to property valuations. External Audit presentation to Annual Members Meeting 2015 Deloitte LLP. Private and Confidential

17 Value for Money & Going Concern The Trust faces a number of significant financial challenges in both the short and medium term that will require careful management going forwards. Nature of Risk The Trust operates in an increasingly financially constrained environment, with significant ongoing cost pressures. Work performed In order to gain assurance over the Trust s financial sustainability in relation to value for money, we completed additional focussed work in this area which included: review of the Trust s financial performance during the year and outturn position and challenge of management s assessment of going concern. review of correspondence with Monitor in relation to the Trust s FSRR rating. review of Board papers and other documentation in respect of the Trust s deficit/variance to plan. review of CIP performance in 2015/16. review Trust plans for 2016/17 including strategy and mitigating actions to achieve financial sustainability. review of the cash position of the Trust and its future cashflow forecast including mitigating options agreed to ensure the Trust has sufficient cash headroom to meet its future liabilities as they fall due. Based upon the evidence provided to us by management we have accepted the Trust s ability to continue as a going concern for the 12 month period to May We gave a clean opinion on VfM for the year ended 31 st March External Audit presentation to Annual Members Meeting 2015 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential.

18 Significant Audit Risks 3 significant risks were identified as part of the 2015/16 audit: Revenue recognition Risk identified in relation to contract income which may not recognised in the correct period at year end. Tested income on a sample basis with no issues to report Management Override of Controls Property Valuations Risk required by auditing standards in relation to the potential misstatement of the financial statements as a result of management override of controls. No issues noted from our testing. Valuations of Trust properties are by nature significant estimates which are based on specialist and management assumptions. We are satisfied that key assumptions are appropriate. We raised four recommendations regarding commentary in the valuation report received from the valuer, the inclusion of St Benedict s Hospice and Haven Court, as well as providing more detail on reasons for changes in the asset portfolio. External Audit presentation to Annual Members Meeting 2015 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential.

19 Quality Report Audit The scope of our work is to support a limited assurance opinion, which is based upon procedures specified by Monitor in their Detailed Guidance for External Assurance on Quality Reports 2015/16. Our audit responsibilities are to review the content and consistency of the quality report and to undertake testing of three performance indicators, two of which are mandated and one of which is selected by the Council of Governors. In response to the growth of performance indicators across the NHS, we have developed a framework of considerations for evaluating data quality. We have used this framework in evaluating our findings and the recommendations we have raised. We have completed our review, including validation of the selected indicators, of the 2015/16 quality report and documentation. We issued a modified opinion in relation to the A&E 4 Hour waits and 18 weeks RTT indicators. External Audit presentation to Annual Members Meeting 2015 Deloitte LLP. Private and confidential.
