Financial Review We are delighted to report that during 2010111 our operating surplus was f53,502 an increase for the fifth consecutive year. Reserves Policy CHC reserves at 2010/1 1 were f467,588, which included 8278,746 of unrestricted reserves. It is the policy of Community Housing Cymru to hold a Reserves level sufficient to cover 3 months of contractual requirements in the unlikely event of the company winding down. The main costs include salaries, redundancy payments to staff, establishments costs and office expenses.
Progress on Corporate Plan Priorities in 2010111 1. Promoting the Voluntary Housing Sector in Wales
o
We formed a new Group structure with Care & Repair Cymru, creating synergy and back office savings that will allow us to intensify our campaigning for not-for-profit action in Housing, Care and Regeneration
o
We held a joint Housing Finance Summit with the Finance Minister and Deputy Minister for Housing and Regeneration in September 2010 where we unveiled the global accounts and also discussed our economic impact, Moneyline Cymru and EIB investment in Wales.
r
We held a Health and Housing Summit at the end of March with the Deputy Ministers for housing and health in order to explore the scope for greater action to reduce pressures on the NHS and increase the role of the sector in care provision.
r
We completed the "Are you on board campaign" where we held debates with National Assembly Candidates in all22local authorities in Wales, challenging them to support the sector's efforts in advancing housing, care and regeneration.
COMMUNITY HOUSING CYMRU LIMITED (Limited by Guarantee) TRUSTEES REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 201{
Progress on Corporate Plan Priorities in 2010111 - Con't
o r r r o
We developed a comprehensive Manifesto for the National Assembly elections which we have used to inform the manifesto preparations of all four main political parties in Wales, and also attended all Autumn party conferences.
We published our third Economic lmpact Study which highlighted the increasingly significant role that Welsh housing associations play in supporting the Welsh economy. The sector met the One Wales 6,500 target. The PR Campaign continued - our "Don't get bitten by Loan Sharks campaign" was the top item on both BBC Wales and ITV Wales in November 2009 and we repeated the adverts in November 2010. CHC is now the lead UK representative on the Cecodhas - Housing Europe Network and will be hosting the general assembly and an EU wide conference on carbon reduction good practice in June of 2011.
2.Promoting innovation in the funding and delivery of social housing and services to support members in a new regulatory system.
r
Great progress has been made on the new Regulatory System. We jointly agreed the Delivery Outcomes with WAG and shall shortly jointly agree the Regulatory Framework Document. Schedule 1 payments were also reformed. The response to CHC support on regulation through our networks, Governance conference and training programmes have been very positive.
r r
We have undertaken a huge amount of work scoping the potential for the sector to benefit from EU Convergence with bids currently in the final stages of approval from WEFO. The Comprehensive Spending Review saw Dowry payments protected, and a softening to the cuts in Supporting People funding, but the 30% cut in SHG lor 2011/12 means that we face significant challenges in supply moving forward.
o
To this end we hosted the Welsh Housing lnvestment Trust research to look at the scope for innovation in future delivery. This work could lead to an intermediate rental vehicle, but further challenges remain.
We will continue to work with the sector, including the Finance Forum to examine further scope for
o
innovation. The work which will soon conclude on the rent benchmarking system will be critical in ensuring the future sustainability of the sector.
3. Promoting the relief of financial hardship
r
The sector played a critical role in delivering almost f30m of investment in the ARBED scheme and so we are determined to see that the sector is well positioned to benefit from the €35m of EU funding which will soon be made availabb for ARBED 2.
o
We are currently looking to create a Revolving Loan Fund with and for the sector which will provide greater benefits than existing FlTs schemes based on EU best practice.
o
We have further developed our work on Financial lnclusion. The 5 pilot Moneyline Cymru outlets have
r
helped 3,000 financially excluded individuals over the past year. Talks are now undenrvay with members in Mid and North Wales on extending the initiative. We were delighted to receive the news that t250,000 in Big Lottery Funding will be available to CHC in 2011112 2011112
r o
to support the Moneyline Cymru scheme. This will be reflected in the financial statements for
This year saw an important "Essex style" review of Supporting People under the leadership of Professor Mansel Aylward and the commitment from WAG and partners to a collaborative implementation of the recommendations. Members have been particularly concerned at the size and scope of benefit reforms and housing benefit cuts proposed by the Whitehall government. CHC has been working in partnership with our counterparts across the UK, as well as with partners in Wales, and were pleased to see proposals to cut 10% housing benefits for JSA claimants unemployed for more than 1 year dropped. We will continue to work with others to oppose cuts that affect the most vulnerable or dis-incentivise work.

Progress on Corporate Plan Priorities in 2010111 - Con't 4. CHC Operations
r
Cartrefi Cymunedol Gwynedd and Tai Calon both joined CHC, taking our stock transfer membership to ten organisations.
r
We are pleased that we are about to report a fifth successive year in moderate surplus which will rebuild reserves to charity commission recommended levels.

financial exclusion and fuel poverty, whilst developing the green
economy and regeneration needs for voluntary housing sector.

PENSION OBLIGATIONS
Community Housing Cymru Limited participates in the Social Housing Pension Scheme (SHPS). The Scheme is funded and is contracted out of the state scheme. It is not possible in the normal course of events to identify on a consistent and reasonable basis the share of underlying assets and liabilities belonging to individual participating employers. This is because the scheme is a multi employer scheme where the scheme assets are co-mingled for investment purposes and benefits are paid from total scheme assets. Accordingly, due to the nature of the scheme. the accounting charge for the period under FRS 17 represents the employer contribution payable.
The Trustee commissions an actuarial valuation of the scheme every three years. The main purpose of the valuation is to determine the financial position of the Scheme in order to address the level of future contributions required so that the Scheme can meet its pension obligations as they fall due. The last formal valuation of the Scheme was performed as at 30 September 2008 by a professional qualified actuary using the Projected Unit Method. The market value of the Scheme's assets at the valuation date was t1,527 million. The valuation revealed a shortfall of assets compared with the value of liabilities of t663 million, equivalent to a past service funding levelof 69.7o/o. The Scheme Actuary has prepared an Actuarial Report that provides an approximate update on the funding position of the Scheme as at 30 September 2010. Such a report is reguired by legislation for years in which a full actuarial valuation is not carried out. The funding update revealed an increase in the assets Scheme to f 1,985 million and indicated a reduction in the shortfall of assets compared to liabilities to approximately f497 million, equivalent to a past service funding level of 80% The next triennial formal valuation of the Scheme is due as at 30 September 201 1. The results will be available in the autumn of 2012.
