New integrated care system to be piloted in 2015/16.

Government and Regulatory Context We have developed an ‘Operational Plan for 2015/16’, reviewed our five-year ‘Strategic Plan for 2014 to 2019’ and our two-year ‘Operational Plan for 2014 to 2015’. We have also analysed the national (government and regulatory) context, specifically taking into account: • ‘Everyone Counts: Planning for Patients 2014/15 – 2018/19’ • ‘NHS Five Year Forward View’ • ‘The Forward View into Action: Planning for 2015/16’ • ‘The Mandate for the NHS 2015/16’ • ‘Closing the Gap: Priorities for Essential Change in Mental Health’ • Winterbourne, Berwick, Francis and Keogh inquiries and reports • Changes in regulatory policy including the Care Quality Commission’s new inspection regime • The National Tariff and our choice of the Enhanced Tariff Option ‘Everyone Counts: Planning for Patients 2014/15 to 2018/19’ established a requirement for NHS organisations to shift their focus from short-term incremental improvements to longer-term planning. Our existing ‘Strategic Plan’ responded to this by setting out plans for transforming our services over a fiveyear period, and this Plan continues to support that vision.

We are committed to improving access to therapies

care for patients now and into the future. Our plans represents a credible strategy for change that will enable delivery of the required levels of performance into the long-term. Our plans also meet all operational and financial requirements in 2015/16 and we have contingencies in place to address any short-falls or unexpected difficulties. ‘The Forward View into Action: Planning for 2015/16’ (published December 2014) describes the approach organisations should start to take in 2015/16 in order to fulfil the vision set out in the ‘NHS Five Year Forward View’. The ‘Forward View into Action’ specifically identifies ‘achieving parity for mental health’ as a priority for 2015/16. This is alongside priorities for improving quality and outcomes, improving patient safety and meeting NHS constitutional standards. The introduction of access and waiting time standards in mental health in 2015/16 is one approach identified in ‘The Forward View into Action’ as a means of achieving parity. New access and waiting time standards will be implemented in the following areas and monitored via Monitor’s Risk Assessment Framework and local contracts: • Early Intervention in Psychosis – £40 million additional investment has been made available to support this • Improving Access to Psychological Therapies – £10million additional investment has been made available centrally and will be targeted towards those areas facing the greatest challenge in achieving the standards ‘The Forward View into Action’ also identifies further investment for the development of adequate and effective liaison psychiatry services, for all ages, in a greater number of acute hospitals. Targeted investment of £30million will be made available in 2015/16 for this purpose. A further £30million targeted investment will be used to support the establishment of community-based specialist teams for children and young people with eating disorders. We welcome the news that, as an outcome of the ‘NHS Five Year Forward View’ and the current impetus to significantly improve mental health services, a new taskforce has been launched to develop a new five-year strategy for mental health for people of all ages. We will take every opportunity to contribute to the work of this Taskforce. The approach to achieving parity in mental health outlined in ‘The Forward View into Action’ does not change the ambitions set out for mental health in ‘The Mandate’ to NHS England for 2015/16. As such, we will continue to deliver against pre-existing mandate objectives - including improving access to psychological therapies standards and improving diagnosis, treatment and care for people with dementia - whilst also focusing on achieving the new access and waiting time standards for mental health services. ‘Closing the Gap’ sets out 25 priorities for essential change in mental health and details how changes in local service planning and delivery will make a profound difference to the lives of people with mental health problems. We have developed local responses to these priorities and will continue to implement these in 2015/16. We remain committed to quality assuring all of Annual Report 2014/15

our activities based on the findings of the Winterbourne, Berwick, Francis and Keogh inquiries and reports, and to take steps to strengthen our systems of internal control. In 2015/16, we are planning to participate in a ‘Governance Review’ led by Monitor to assess our performance against its ‘Well-led Framework’ and determine the robustness of our governance arrangements and organisational development agenda. We are also focused on the Care Quality Commission’s new Registration Regulations, and associated fundamental standards of quality and safety, and are actively preparing for the new inspection regime. We are taking steps to strengthen our assurance process and have also commenced a regular programme of internal inspections, which will continue into 2015/16, to this end.

Quality Goals As planned, we continued to drive forward quality improvements in 2014/15. We achieved all targets set nationally for mental health providers in 2014/15, delivered our Commissioning for Quality and Innovation schemes and secured all associated income, and made significant progress against our Quality Improvement Priorities as set out in our annual Quality Account.

National and Local Commissioning Priorities We recognise the particular challenges faced in, and across, our local health economies and our plans align with our commissioners’ intentions as set out in their long-term strategic plans and associated needs assessments and strategies. We continue to work closely with our commissioners to understand the health needs of our populations and to develop and deliver services that best meet those needs within the available resources. Our main commissioners are: • Bolton, Salford and Trafford CCGs for our district services • NHS England (Cheshire and Merseyside Sub-Regional Team) for specialised services • NHS England Health and Justice Team for North West (hosted by Lancashire and Greater Manchester Sub-Regional Team) for offender health services • A number of local authorities (including, Salford, Central Lancashire, Cumbria and Wigan and Leigh) for substance misuse services District Services - CCGs have explicitly been asked to ensure that spend on mental health services rises in real terms in 2015/16 and grows at least in line with the CCG’s overall allocation growth. Our CCGs’ commissioning intentions cover the following themes: • Early intervention and prevention • Recovery – enabling the best possible outcomes for patients • Delivering an integrated approach to care to support patients’ physical, mental and social care needs • Improving Access to Psychological Therapies • Improving children and young people’s mental health • Rapid and convenient access to services • Emergency and unplanned care - continued development of psychiatric liaison or RAIDtype services

• Supporting people with dementia to live healthier lives • Implementing redesigned acute inpatient services and community services • Positive or improved experience of care We continue to address these themes in our strategic priorities for 2015/16, which are supported by our commissioners.

Supporting people with dementia to live healthier lives

Offender Health/Health and Justice - In terms of offender health, NHS England are part-way through their fourtranche programme of re-procurement for health and social care services in prisons and healthcare in secure children’s homes across the North West. In partnership with Bridgewater Community Healthcare NHS Trust, we have participated in procurement exercises in Greater Manchester and Merseyside to date and have been awarded contracts in HMP Hindley and Barton Moss Secure Children’s Centre in Greater Manchester and St. Catherine’s Secure Children’s Centre in Merseyside. Procurement for tranche 3 (Cheshire) and tranche 4 (Lancashire) will follow in early 2015/16 and these opportunities will be assessed when the tenders are published. Specialised Services – NHS England’s review of CAMHS (Child and Adolescent Mental Health) Tier 4 services, and adult medium and low secure mental health services, will continue in 2015/16. The review will focus particularly on whether the right services are being provided in the right place and providing the required capacity. We will be an active participant in this work and recognise that changes in the way services are commissioned and delivered may follow. Substance Misuse Services – The market for alcohol and drugs services continues to be the area where we are most subject to commissioners ‘market testing’ services with a view to driving up quality and value for money. This market is fast-moving, subject to political scrutiny and occupied by a range of competing NHS and third sector providers. Commissioners are issuing requests for tenders at regular intervals (usually, three to five years). As such, opportunities for expansion, and equally risks of losing existing business, arise frequently.

Devolution We are active participants in planning for the devolution of health and social care responsibilities to CCGs and local councils in Greater Manchester during the build-up year (2015/16) and from April 2016 onwards. We are members of the mental health workstream of ‘Devo Manc’ and fully support the principles guiding this development. We recognise that mental health services may be re-shaped as this agenda progresses in order to better meet the interests and outcomes of patients and people in Greater Manchester.

Manchester Mental Health Improvement Programme We understand the long-standing challenges facing providers of mental health services in Manchester and continue to be engaged in the Manchester Mental Health Improvement Programme (MHIP). This programme of work is focused on reducing fragmentation across Manchester and enabling a more integrated approach; improving outcomes and quality; improving access; and delivering care and treatment based on assessed needs and good practice. We are committed to working with other key stakeholders to redesign services in Manchester and implement new care pathway specifications. We will continue to engage with Monitor and the CQC as this work progresses and in the event that any potential transactions would result in a material or significant change to this organisation.

Competition As more opportunities arise outside the alcohol and drugs field – for example, in health and justice and psychological therapies services - we are taking steps to share our experience across the wider organisation. We have necessarily developed a formal process for bidding/tenders, which includes market shaping, assessments and strategy and defined roles and responsibilities. Within this process, we also focus on relationship management and reputation management, and maintain a knowledge base of the local health economy, commissioner requirements and changing agendas. We will continue to seek to improve our bid maturity in 2015/16. We have also grasped opportunities to deliver services in new ways and by using different contracting models, such as prime provider models, contractual joint ventures and alliance agreements, and will continue to innovate in this regard in future years.

Summary of Board Strategic Intentions In light of this strategic context, we recommit to pursuing the direction set out in our fiveyear strategic plan for 2014 to 2019. This plan resonates with the expectations set out for mental health services in ‘The Five Year Forward View’, ‘The Forward View into Action’ and the NHS Mandate. We welcome the identification of ‘parity for mental health’ as a key priority and the introduction of access and waiting time standards, and respond to these in our plans for 2015/16.

Performance Monitoring Performance against our key priorities is monitored via a number of mechanisms. For example, our approach to business planning allocates responsibility for monitoring, supporting and performance managing the achievement of business plan priorities, throughout the year, to identified individuals (namely, Network Directors and Heads of Service). For those priorities which require resource allocation, and have therefore been developed into a business case, the individual business cases also outline how performance will be monitored. This includes via agreed performance targets; systems to record and report performance; implementation plans, including key milestones and timescales; and the approach to evaluation and evaluation criteria.

Financial Plans The Trust has had a successful year financially, achieving a net surplus of £7.8m, and an overall Financial Risk Rating of 4. Whilst 2014/15 has been a successful year for the Trust, the coming years will continue to represent an increasing challenge to both the Trust and to the Public Sector. The NHS faces an unprecedented financial dilemma; the supply of funding is struggling to match the growing demand for healthcare. The need to deliver 4 per cent efficiency savings until 2016 is of immediate concern. Savings of a similar amount are likely to be needed after 2017. Along with all NHS organisations, we will need to identify and deliver 4 to 5% efficiency savings on an annual basis. This means an estimated £5m per year must be saved on a recurrent basis whilst we maintain the quality of services. Our Trust has an excellent track record for making efficiencies but this must continue in the forthcoming years, to ensure that we remain a financially secure organisation. ‘The Five Year Forward View’ highlighted that major system changes are required to protect high-quality sustainable care for patients now and into the future. Additional investment of £1.98bn in mental health services was announced in the autumn 2014 statement, including £150m from NHS England. We welcome this investment and will work with commissioners to ensure that the increase in funding is invested to meet the new standards for early intervention in psychosis services, access standards relating to adult Improving Access to Psychological Therapies services and liaison psychiatry services. The Trust has developed its 2015/16 operational plan in light of the challenging economic backdrop and a clear expectation that the funding provided to the NHS will need to be supplemented by making efficiencies to deal with the rising demand from an ageing population and the increased costs of new technology.

Achievements The last 12 months have been on of achievement and many successes have been awarded to us. Not only did the rapid access detoxification acute referral facility win Team of the Year at the Royal College of Psychiatrists, but GMW also won:

Risks Our Trust Board hold ultimate accountability for quality. The Board has established a subcommittee with delegated authority to set the strategy for quality and to ensure delivery against it. The Quality Governance Committee is chaired by a Non-Executive Director and includes other Trust Board members, lead clinicians from all clinical services and corporate leads with responsibility for risk and quality management. The structure and business of the Quality Governance Committee has been informed by an assessment against Monitor’s Quality Governance Framework, with guidance and advice from Deloitte. The Quality Governance Committee have an agreed Quality Governance Framework and leads on setting and measuring performance against the Trust’s quality priorities as set out in the annual Quality Account. Trust Board are visible within clinical services and undertake regular visits to services. This provides members with opportunities to triangulate evidence, speak to service users and staff about their experience and to ensure that there is an open and transparent culture within the Trust. The Trust Board’s Board Assurance Framework sets out the key strategic risks, which could affect delivery of our key strategic and quality priorities. The risks identified in the Board Assurance Framework are based on a collective assessment by the Trust Board of the operating environment. They are also informed by risks identified at Directorate/ service level, which are managed via local Risk Registers and reviewed at the Trust-wide Risk Management Strategy Group. Directorate risks are escalated to the Board Assurance Framework in the event that they could significantly impact upon the delivery of our strategic objectives. As quality is at the heart of all of our objectives, risks identified in the Board Assurance Framework have the potential to impact on service quality. Our current key strategic risks, and associated controls, are as follows. Where gaps in controls have been identified by the Trust Board, actions are being progressed to mitigate these. Key risks: • Acute Care Pathway – risk of the redesigned acute care pathway not being implemented effectively, which could result in quality, relationship, financial and workforce issues. Controls in place to mitigate this risk include oversight provided by the Steering Group and designated work-streams; robust business plan; and continuous engagement with CCGs and other key stakeholders during, and subsequent to, the consultation process • Implementation of the new clinical information system – risk of failure to effectively implement the new clinical information system which may impact on safety Page 14

Greater Manchester West Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust


and quality. Controls in place include oversight of the Project Board, robust business plan; engagement of Directors and clinicians in implementation and commitment of required resources • Workforce planning – risk of ineffective/insufficient workforce planning leading to inadequate resources to deliver services and lack of control over pay costs. Control in place include identification of workforce issues via annual business planning process; incorporation of key workforce indicators in monthly Directorate Performance Reports; annual development of Trust-wide Workforce Plan plus specific workforce plans for service redesigns; annual Training Needs Analysis; and cost improvement planning. • Sickness absence – risk of higher than planned sickness absence impacting on service delivery and incurring higher bank and agency expenditure. Controls in place include Sickness Management Policy; monthly Directorate sickness absence reports; designated HR Officer to support Directorates; Absence Management Training for all Line Managers; Occupational Health and Counselling service available to all staff; and monthly monitoring and assurance meetings. • Mandatory training – risk of lower than agreed compliance with mandatory training leading to inadequately trained staff. Controls in place include Induction and Mandatory Training Policy; monthly monitoring at Workforce and Education Governance Committee; adequate classroom and e-learning provision in place; resource built into staffing establishments to enable release of staff for training; and requirement to attend mandatory training made a requirement for pay progression with effect from 1 April 2014. • Compliance with targets – risk of failure to meet national and/or local targets, which may impact on patient care, Trust rating and could lead to financial penalties or intervention from regulators. Controls include Board and Directorate Performance Reports; Data Quality Reports and associated operating guidance; and scrutiny via Network Board, Performance Measures, Contract Monitoring and Quality Governance Committee meetings. • IT business continuity and disaster recovery – risk of lack of resilient IT infrastructure and business continuity/disaster recovery arrangements leading to a delay in the recovery of key clinical and consequently impacting on service delivery and patient safety. Controls include oversight of IM&T Strategy Group and investment in IT infrastructure. • Income (economic climate) – risk of uncertainty/insecurity of income as a consequence of national economic climate and commissioner intentions. Specific risk relate to competition and tendering of our existing services. Controls include financial reporting at Directorate level; signed contracts in place; Contract Monitoring meetings; annual and longer-term planning; contracts risk register; and market assessment of business development opportunities. • Devolution Greater Manchester - the implications of the framework for delegation and devolution of health and social care responsibilities in shadow and final form by April 2016 on commissioning arrangements across Greater Manchester. We are aware that from July 2015, GMW will be subject to an unannounced Care Quality Commission (CQC) ‘deep dive’ inspection where the following questions will be asked: • Are services safe? • Are services caring? • Are services responsible? • Are services effective? • Are services well-led?

Annual Report 2014/15

Page 15


As these visits will be very different from other CQC visits, over the coming months, senior executives will carry out a number of mock inspections in our services which will mirror what would be like if the CQC were to actually inspect the service. These mock inspections are a great way for us to be able to see when our teams are doing really well and when they need extra support. If improvements are needed, we can help staff make positive change.

Our Environment The pressures on the NHS have never been greater with efficiencies being sought from all services involved in the delivery of healthcare. The sustainability agenda is seen by the government as a primary enabler to achieve these efficiencies with the added benefit of releasing significant cost savings across a range of key areas of activity:

One of the many GMW buildings

• Energy and carbon management • Procurement and food • Transport and access • Water • Waste • Designing the built environment • Organisational and workforce development • Partnership and networks • Governance • Finance GMW has been at the forefront of the sustainability agenda throughout 2014/15 promoting and raising the profile of sustainability in its widest context. A number of major achievements in areas as diverse as procurement, energy, and waste have demonstrated GMW’s commitment to meet its sustainable objectives as outlined in the GMW Sustainability Strategy. The Hospital Food Standards Panel in late 2014, after working with organisations including royal colleges and nutritional experts developed a set of compulsory standards and recommendations for hospitals that encourage healthy eating, high-quality food production, sustainability and excellent nutritional care. The Department of Health advised ‘for the first time hospitals will have to meet mandatory food standards as part of a long-mooted drive to raise its standards of food across the country’. The new standards introduced for the first time the need to source food on a sustainable basis through reinforcing the need to reduce food miles and source locally whenever possible. Food Standards 1. Nutritious and appetising food and drink 2. A varied menu which includes meals suitable for all religious needs 3. Access to fresh drinking water at all times Page 16

Greater Manchester West Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust


4. Food and drink that is available at all times 5. Food that adheres to the Government Buying Standards for Food that is sustainable and locally produced where possible. The updated energy pack and video pod casts on the GMW Sustainability homepage are intended to make climate change a reality by bringing to everyone’s attention how their behaviour impacts on the environment. Engaging with service users, visitors and the GMW workforce remains as a key priority in the coming year as changing individuals’ behaviour so they become more carbon aware and consequently less carbon dependant will have the greatest impact on GMW’s fossil fuel consumption and consequently CO2 emissions. The sustainability agenda continues to gather momentum with 2015 being the next benchmark year for NHS organisations to demonstrate they have met their carbon reduction targets. The NHS is required achieve a 10% reduction in its carbon emissions when compared to the 2007 baseline. While it is anticipated that GMW will meet this target a number of energy initiatives have been incorporated into the 2015 capital programme to deliver further reductions in primary and secondary energy consumption. This ensures that our capital investment programme reflects GMW’s ongoing commitment to remaining at the forefront of low carbon technology with highly efficient infrastructure and new buildings. The NHS sustainability day on 26th March 2015 marked the start of the national publicity campaign aimed at promoting carbon reduction strategies and sustainable developments across the entire NHS. GMW was actively engaging and promoted sustainability with events centred at the Waterdale Restaurant and Conference centre. Local companies and suppliers were involved with GMW showcasing its sustainability plans for the coming year. Clinical services were involved for the first time promoting the role of local sustainability champions.

Social, Community and Human Rights Issues Greater Manchester West Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust is committed to improving the lives of our service users, carers, staff and the broader populations whom we serve. Our aspirations to achieve this corporate social responsibility are set out in “Committed to sustaining communities” within which, one of the key objectives is to implement a strategy that promotes social inclusion and the recovery model. Social inclusion and recovery are closely linked to the equality and diversity agendas, and this strategic plan incorporates the Trust’s Single Equality Scheme which sets out our arrangements for meeting our statutory duties in relation to race equality, disability equality and gender equality, as well as actions on age, sexual orientation and spirituality. Through implementation of “Equality, Inclusion, Recovery” we will continue to strive to be an organisation that: • Has the confidence and respect of service users, carers, communities, our staff and partner organisations • Provides high quality mental health and substance misuse services that meet the needs of all our diverse communities • Is fully representative of our diverse communities • Has equality and diversity embedded in its culture • Works with service users to maximise opportunities for full community engagement • Works to reduce stigma in mental health and substance misuse Annual Report 2014/15

We take this responsibility seriously and have a strong track record of service user and carer involvement and engagements through a variety of mechanisms. A number of the established plans outlined respond to service user feedback. We will continue to work Page 18

Greater Manchester West Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust


with our service users and carers to ensure that plans remain on track and relevant to any changing priorities or needs. Our Council of Governors have actively contributed to the development and agreement of the plans. During 2014, we hosted a round of governor elections and recruited a number of new governors who have rich and varied backgrounds. Further details can be found under the Council of Governors section of this Annual Report. Where required, the views of Overview and Scrutiny Committees and commissioners have and will be sought on specific plans. We are particularly focused on enabling the following: • Market penetration – consolidate or strengthen our position in existing markets • Service development – provide a new type of service, which may or may not be an extension of existing services, in existing markets • Market development – providing a service in which we have experience (i.e. an existing service) in new markets • Diversification – providing a new type of service in new markets During the year 2014 – 2015, staff in post figures are 3136 headcount and 2897.14 WTE.

environments with minimal risk to service users and staff and that care delivery is personcentred, evidence based, efficient and effective. We acknowledge and appreciate that Quality and Governance is everyone’s responsibility and all staff must contribute to the organisational values by: • Working within National Guidance, Trust policies and local service guidelines • Adhering to multiagency safeguarding procedures, including Prevent to protect children, young people and vulnerable adults from all forms of abuse • Identifying and managing potential risks and reporting incidents in order to protect service users, carers and staff and support lessons learnt from such events • Demonstrating transparency, openness and a duty of candour • Valuing and respecting diversity and treating service users, carers and colleagues with dignity, respect and compassion • Actively contributing to and supporting positive practice and innovation • Addressing and managing evidence of poor standards of care or negligence or abuse of service users by reporting such incidents as per Trust policy • Keeping up to date with research, developments and evidence based practice • Delivering a robust clinical audit programme and acting on results as appropriate • Supporting data collection for the monitoring and reporting of service quality to external regulators i.e. Monitor, Health and Safety Executive, Care Quality Commission, Clinical Commissioning Groups, NHS England and the NHS Litigation Authority in order to provide organisational compliance assurance The safety of service users, carers, staff and the general public is of the utmost importance. We continue to use and expand our web-based patient safety and risk management system, which are linked with our electronic medical records systems to ensure service user records can be accessed quickly and securely. These systems have continued to improve the timely management and lessons learnt from incidents and identify potential risks. As a result of our web-based patient safety and Safety is very important to us risk management system we continue to see a reduction in clinical and non-clinical claims. We have had independent verification that our incident management and risk management arrangements are strong and robust enough to ensure that patient safety is first-rate. Our Customer Care Team support and facilitate the management of complaints and compliments. When we receive a complaint, we aim to address it in a timely manner and provide individuals with all the evidence available to show that we have dealt with their concerns using a clear and transparent approach. Service users and carers are involved with meetings and projects in order to share their experiences so that we may further understand the needs of our local communities and respond by adopting our services accordingly.

To further facilitate lessons learnt, safety and evidence based practice we have an annual internal audit calendar. This audit calendar is produced and agreed by the Nice Implementation & Audit Group which reports to the Board of Directors. This audit calendar captures the national, clinical and directorate audits that we undertake in order to demonstrate that we do take the provision of patient centred, equitable, safe, high quality, and evidence based care very seriously. Any weaknesses highlighted from the audit outcomes are then addressed and reassessed by repeating the audit cycle. Further assurance is provided, as required, through the procurement of Mersey Internal Audit Agency who undertook independent audits within the Trust and produced a level of assurance and recommendations for improvement. This assurance is further enhanced through our Quality Accounts. We continue to monitor our performance under the Mental Health Act to ensure that our practice is lawful and in accordance with the Code of Practice and we continue to strengthen our Trust-wide Mental Health Act management arrangements to help us achieve consistently high standards in our administration of the Act. Whilst we are recognised for already providing good quality care, demonstrated by our compliance with external regulators, we recognise that there is always room for improvement. As an organisation with a culture for continuous learning, we encourage all our staff and service users to make suggestions for quality improvement and be involved in implementing the great ideas that are adopted, in order to further enhance safe, effective and positive experiences for users of our services.

1. Financial reporting The Audit Committee meeting held on the 24th April 2015, included a review of the Trust’s performance as outlined in the 2014/15 annual financial statements and a commentary on the reasons for the main changes compared to the financial statements for 2013/14. Management brought to the attention of the audit committee the significant movements with regards to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2015. The committee reviewed the Trust’ financial statements for the financial year 2014/15, in detail with a particular focus on: • Compliance with financial reporting standards • Areas requiring significant judgements in applying accounting policies • The accounting policies • Whether the accounts and annual report are a fair reflection of the Trust’s performance The Committee considered the financial statements audit risks including the areas where the Trust has applied judgement in the treatment of revenues and costs to ensure that annual accounts represented a true position of the Trust’s finances. The External Audit Plan 2014/15 highlighted two main risk issues relating to the valuation of land and buildings and recognition of deferred income and creditors. The Audit Committee discussed the approach taken by the Trust in the valuation of land and buildings. The Trust undertakes a full revaluation of its assets every three years and the next revaluation is due at the end of the 2015/16 financial year. For 2014/15, the Trust revalued the main buildings and capital works that were completed to ensure any impairment is correctly accounted for in the financial year. The Audit Committee also discussed the risk referring to the recognition of deferred income and creditors. The Trust outlined the process of classification and confirmed that the criteria used was related to the timings of the projects spending plans. As a result some items were classed as Creditors; due within one year, and other items included as liabilities extending to a longer time period.

2. Internal control In accordance with the Committee’s role, and in addition to the Director of Finance, other officers of the Trust were called to attend the Committee to provide updates regarding progress on implementation of recommendations following audit and other assurance reviews.

3. Internal Audit and Counter Fraud The Internal Audit service is provided by Mersey Internal Audit Agency (MIAA), an independent NHS organisation. The key conclusion from their work for 2014/15 as provided in the Director of Audit Opinion and Annual Report was that ‘Significant Assurance’ was given that there were generally sound systems of internal control to meet the organisation’s objectives and that controls are generally being applied consistently.

Counter Fraud As with the Internal Audit Service, Counter Fraud is provided by the Counter Fraud Service and is hosted through Mersey Internal Audit Agency. As requested by the Committee to meet mandated requirements an Annual Report was provided outlining the delivery of the fraud plan.

4. External Audit The provision of External Audit services is delivered by the KPMG. Their work is mainly related to audit the financial statements and provide and audit opinion. The appointment of a Foundation Trusts External Auditors remains one of the important statutory duties of the Council of Governors, supported by the Audit Committee. KPMG were appointed as external auditors in December 2010, following a tender process. They were appointed for a period of three years. The guidance issued in August 2013 stated that the Audit Committee should run the process with the final decision on appointment/ re-appointment resting with the council of governors. In accordance with the guidance the Audit Committee agreed the process in 2013, for the appointment / re-appointment of external audit. The Committee reviewed the work of External Audit over the three year period since their appointment and focused on the effectiveness and value for money of the audit services over the last three years and their overall performance. The Council of Governors, at its March 2014 meeting, agreed a recommendation to extend the term with KPMG for a further two years and that the service be tendered in December 2016. The Audit Committee met with External Audit on regular occasions throughout the year to discuss their findings and the detail content of their reports. The external audit and Audit Committee members also met in private to discuss matters of a confidential nature. The Committee approved the External Audit Plan and have received regular updates from KPMG on technical issues briefings of developments in the NHS. During the course of the year the Audit Committee discussed the performance of External Audit and reviewed its effectiveness and output for the services provided and the annual cost. The total audit fee for the financial year 2014/15 was £64,825. It was made of two elements. For the ‘Accounts opinion and Resource conclusion,’ there was a cost of £50,575 and for the ‘Quality Accounts Opinion,’ a cost of £14,250. An unqualified opinion on the accounts for 2013/14 was given to the Trust. The work on the 2014/15 accounts commenced in April 2015 and will conclude with a report anticipated in May. Other matters: • The committee also provided oversight on a number of financial matters including Losses and Special Payments, Treasury management and waivers of Standing Financial Instructions • During the course of the year the Audit Committee reviewed the work and performance of both Internal and External audit by completing the audit committee handbook self-assessment checklists and feedback from committee members. • The committee also undertook a review of its own effectiveness. • The Committee also reviewed its terms of reference which were presented to the Trust Board and also agreed the audit committee work plan for the year. • During the year the committee met privately with external audit, internal audit and counter fraud.

The largest item of expenditure within the Trust relates to staff costs, (£115.7 million or 73.9% of operating expenses). The District Valuers valued the new buildings completed during the year, such as Eskdale Ward and the second substation on the Prestwich site. This resulted in an impairment of £885k

7. Capital Investment The Trust continued to invest in the development and improvement of its estate. The following table shows the schemes that have been undertaken during the year, totalling £13.0 million. This is a significant investment in the enhancement of patient and nonpatient facilities.

The major capital schemes include: i)

The scheme to build additional medium secure beds on the Edenfield site is progressing well and is due for completion in 2015.

ii)

The scheme to build the Recovery Academy, a purpose-built Education and Training Facility on the Prestwich site is on schedule to be completed and commissioned by Autumn 2015.

The new facility will accommodate existing education and training functions, including library services, and enable the relocation of our Trust Headquarters. iii) On the Woodland site, schemes to accommodate additional beds and improve facilities on Moss and Delamere wards, and the conversion of the former Day Hospital are progressing well. These are due to be completed and commissioned by September 2015. iv) Work commenced on the replacement of Low Secure wards on the Edenfield site. The scheme is progressing and is on target to be completed during 2016. In addition upgrades to the IT server room, the relocation of the finance department to Harrop House, and improvements at Meadowbrook were completed during the year. As in previous years the Trust has continued to invest in backlog maintenance, statutory works, reducing ligatures and energy performance improvements.

8. Liquidity and Short Term Investments The Trust has a cash balance of ÂŁ49.8 million as at the 31st March 2015, with interest receivable of ÂŁ0.2 million being re-invested in the delivery of services.

9. Better Payment Practice Code – Measure of Compliance

Annual Report 2014/15

Page 67


The Better Payment Practice Code (BPPC) requires the Trust to pay all NHS, and non-NHS trade creditors within 30 calendar days of receipt of goods or a valid invoice (whichever is later) unless other payment terms have been agreed. Where this involves a non-public sector organisation, the Trust ensures to make payments as quickly as possible.

10. Cost Allocation The Foundation Trust has complied with cost allocation and charging requirements set out in the HM Treasury Guidelines.

11. Accounting Policies The Trust has produced the Annual Accounts for 2014/15 following the NHS Foundation Trust Annual Reporting Manual 2014/15, and in-line with the requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The accounting policies are approved by the Board for use in preparing the accounts and are reviewed annually to reflect any changing circumstances involving accounting regulation or guidance. Accounting policies for pensions and other retirement benefits are set out in note 1.3.2 of the accounts. Details of senior employees’ remuneration can be found on page 34 of the Annual Report.

12. Going Concern Following review by the Trust’s Board, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Trust has adequate resources to continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the accounts.

13. Looking Forward Whilst 2014/15 has been successful year for the Trust, the coming years will continue to represent an increasing challenge to both the Trust and to the Public Sector. The NHS faces an unprecedented financial dilemma; the supply of funding is struggling to match the growing demand for healthcare. The need to deliver 4 per cent efficiency savings until 2016 is of immediate concern. Savings of a similar amount are likely to be needed after 2017. Greater Manchester West, along with all NHS organisations will need to identify and deliver 4 to 5 per cent efficiency savings on an annual basis. For the Trust this means an estimated £5m per year must be saved on a recurrent basis whilst we maintain the quality of services. The Trust has an excellent track record for making efficiencies but this must continue in the forthcoming years, to ensure that the Trust remains a financially secure organisation. The Five Year Forward View highlighted that major system changes are required to protect high-quality sustainable care for patients now and into the future. The Trust has developed the 2015/16 operational plan in light of the challenging economic backdrop and a clear expectation that the funding provided to the National Health Service will need to be supplemented by making efficiencies to deal with the rising demand from an ageing population and the increased costs of new technology.

NHS Funding in 2015/16 Additional investment of £1.98bn was announced in the autumn 2014 statement, including £150m from NHS England through efficiencies and reprioritisation in its central budgets. This implies a real terms funding increases of 1.6%, in line with the funding ambitions outlined in the Forward view. The additional funding seeks to address a number of priorities. For mental health investment, there is a specific reference of the following additional resources: • £40m being made available to support the introduction of specialist early-interventionin-psychosis services, • £10m for access standards relating to adult IAPT services, • £30m for liaison psychiatry services In addition to the above, CCG Commissioners have been asked to: “ ensure that mental health spend will rise in real terms in every CCG and grow at least in line with the CCG’s overall allocation growth;”

With specific reference to Condition FT4 – NHS foundation trust governance arrangements – the Trust Board has continued to ensure that there are: • effective board and committee structures; • clear responsibilities for its Board, for committees reporting to the Board and for staff reporting to the Board and those committees; and • clear reporting lines and accountabilities throughout the organisation. The Board confirms that it has complied with Condition FT4 in-year, as at the date of this statement and that it expects to continue to comply with this condition throughout2015/16. Information governance and data security risks are managed as part of this process and assessed using the Information Governance Tool Kit. The risk register is updated with the currently identified information governance and data security risks. The Trust has a Data Quality Policy which is the responsibility of the Director of Finance and IM&T. Assurance with regard to Data Quality is provided through the Information Governance Steering Group. Potential and identified risks which may impact on external stakeholders and key partner agencies such as Local Authorities, other NHS Trusts, the judicial system, voluntary organisations and service users are handled through structured mechanisms and forums such as Overview and Scrutiny Committees, contract negotiation meetings, Council of Governor Meetings and service user forums. The Foundation Trust is fully compliant with the requirements of registration with the Care Quality Commission. As an employer with staff entitled to membership of the NHS Pension Scheme, control measures are in place to ensure all employer obligations contained within the Scheme Regulations are complied with. This includes ensuring that deductions from salary, employer’s contributions and payments into the Scheme are in accordance with the Scheme rules, and that member Pension Scheme records are accurately updated in accordance with the timescales detailed in the Regulations. Control measures are in place to ensure that all the organisation’s obligations under equality, diversity and human rights legislation are complied with. The Foundation Trust has undertaken risk assessments and Carbon Reduction Delivery Plans are in place in accordance with emergency preparedness and civil contingency requirements, as based on UKCIP 2009 weather projects, to ensure that the organisation’s obligations under the Climate Change Act and Adaptation Reporting requirements are complied with.

Review of the Trust’s Economy, Efficiency and Effectiveness of the Use of Resources The Strategic and Operational Plans are approved by the Board of Directors and submitted to Monitor. The Operational Plan is monitored in detail by the Board of Directors on a monthly basis with key performance indicators and Monitor Metrics reviewed quarterly by the Board. A full copy of the monthly Integrated Finance and Performance Report is issued to all Board Directors and the Trust’s External Auditors. The Trust’s resources are managed within the framework set by the Governance Manual, which includes Standing Financial Instructions. Financial governance arrangements are Page 76

Greater Manchester West Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust


supported by internal and external audit to ensure economic, efficient and effective use of resources. Directorate and Corporate Departments are responsible for the delivery of financial and other performance targets via a performance management framework. This is led through a monthly Directorate Management Board meeting which includes Executive Director scrutiny of performance.

Information governance Any Information Governance (IG) breaches are recorded in the Trust Datix system (incident reporting system) any breaches at a high level would be automatically sent to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO). GMW has not been referred to the ICO in 2014-15. However, GMW takes any IG incident seriously and has reported five IG related incidents in 2014-15. These incidents were in relation to unauthorised access to a patient’s record and patient letter’s being sent incorrectly by staff. Two incidents were reported whereby unauthorised access was undertaken by staff, accessing a patient’s record. Both incidents were investigated and the Trusts personal responsibility framework was used in dealing with the staff concerned. The action taken by the Trust was deemed appropriate and satisfactory. Three incidents where letters were incorrectly sent to the wrong location resulted in additional training provided to the staff members concerned. The ICO was assured that appropriate measures and action had been taken to reduce the risk of a reoccurrence.

Annual Quality Report The directors are required under the Health Act 2009 and the National Health Service (Quality Accounts) Regulations 2010 (as amended) to prepare Quality Accounts for each financial year. Monitor has issued guidance to NHS foundation trust boards on the form and content of annual Quality Reports which incorporate the above legal requirements in the NHS Foundation Trust Annual Reporting Manual. We are an organisation that is passionate about delivering high quality care. Quality and continuous improvement is at the heart of everything we do. Through the hard work of our workforce, we have taken significant steps to improve the experience of service users and the safety and effectiveness of care in 2014/15. We have committed to making further improvements in 2015/16. The Quality Governance Committee, which is a formal sub-committee of the Trust Board, is responsible for developing and defining the Trust’s quality strategy and monitoring progress against the quality improvement priorities set out in our Quality Account. The Quality Governance Committee is chaired by a nonexecutive director and includes representation from all professional groups and services through the Quality Governance Committee, the Board is assured that clear and effective systems and processes are in place to govern quality. As described in our Quality Account, directors have taken steps to satisfy themselves that the content of our Quality Account presents a fair and balanced view and is consistent with internal and external sources of information including: • Feedback from Commissioners, governors, local Healthwatch organisations and our joint Scrutiny Committee Annual Report 2014/15

Newly approved policies are shared via a network of policy leads, published on the Trust’s intranet and highlighted in internal staff communications. Our staff are critical to the achievement of our quality improvement priorities. Learning and development opportunities are available for all members of staff, at every stage of their personal development. Through this, staff are equipped with the knowledge and skills needed to deliver high quality services that are positively experienced by our service users. The Trust keeps staff informed about our plans, achievements, examples of best practice and any issues facing the organisation through a range of briefings including ‘GMW Messenger’. Exceptional staff achievements are recognised and celebrated in our annual staff awards. The Trust also participates in the annual National NHS Staff Survey and acts on the feedback received from this survey to improve the working lives of our staff and help provide better care to our service users. Feedback from our service users, and other key stakeholders including carers, is central to our quality strategy. Delivering improvements in how we listen to and learn from service user feedback remains one of our quality improvement priorities for 2015/16. With regard to complaints handling, all information on complaints is included in monthly ‘Customer Care Reports’, which are reviewed in local governance meetings.. The Trust produces an annual complaints report in accordance with Regulation 18 of the ‘Local Authority Social Services and NHS Complaints (England) Regulations 2009’. Our annual complaints report is reviewed and agreed by the Quality Governance Committee. The Trust Board receives a monthly summary of complaints activity. The Trust has achieved a ‘green’ rating for performance against the Information Governance Toolkit standards. The Information Governance Toolkit provides an overall measure of the quality of data systems, standards and processes. The Trust has robust systems in place to review and report data quality and performance against our Quality Account improvement priorities and other key quality indicators. The remit of our ‘Performance Measures and Data Quality Group’ includes raising awareness of the importance of data quality, ensuring all staff are aware of their data quality responsibilities, and supporting the development of policies and procedures to improve data quality. The Trust Board receives assurance on data quality and performance via a monthly ‘Board Performance Report’. The ‘Board Performance Report’ is informed by individual directorate performance reports, which are subject to local scrutiny and monitoring. For more information on our approach to quality, please see our ‘Quality Account 2014/15’.

Review of effectiveness As Accounting Officer, I have responsibility for reviewing the effectiveness of the system of internal control. My review of the effectiveness of the system of internal control is informed by the work of the internal auditors, clinical audit and the executive managers and clinical leads within the NHS Foundation Trust who have responsibility for the development and maintenance of the internal control framework. I have drawn on the content of the Quality Report attached to this Annual Report and other performance information available to me. My review is also informed by comments made by the external auditors in their management letter and other reports. I have been advised on the implications of the result of my review of the effectiveness of the system of internal control by the Board, the Audit Committee and Quality Governance Committee and plan to address weaknesses and ensure continuous improvement of the system is in place. The assurance framework itself provides me with evidence that the effectiveness of controls that manage the risks to the organisation achieving its principle objectives have been reviewed. The Director of Internal Audit provides me with an opinion on the overall arrangements for gaining assurance through the assurance framework and on controls reviewed as part of the internal audit work through reviews by the Quality Governance and Audit Committees. The Board Assurance Framework is reviewed by the Board of Directors quarterly and it provides me and the Board with evidence of the effectiveness of controls in place to manage risks to achieving the organisation’s principle objectives. My review is also informed by External Audit, the National Health Service Litigation Authority and periodic audits of compliance with the Standards by the Care Quality Commission, Mental Health Commission and other external inspections, accreditations and reviews. Processes are well established and ensure regular review of systems and action plans on the effectiveness of the systems of internal control through: • Board review of Board Assurance Framework and action plans; • Audit Committee scrutiny of controls in place; • Review of serious incidents and learning by the Quality Governance Committee, including those for Risk Management and Clinical Effectiveness; • Review of progress in meeting the requirements as set by the Care Quality Commission; • Internal audits of effectiveness of systems of internal control

Conclusion No significant control issues were identified.

Information on reserves Public dividend capital Public dividend capital (PDC) is a type of public sector equity finance based on the excess of assets over liabilities at the time of establishment of the predecessor NHS trust. Additional PDC may also be issued to NHS foundation trusts by the Department of Health. A charge, reflecting the cost of capital utilised by the NHS foundation trust, is payable to the Department of Health as the public dividend capital dividend.

Revaluation reserve Increases in asset values arising from revaluations are recognised in the revaluation reserve, except where, and to the extent that, they reverse impairments previously recognised in operating expenses, in which case they are recognised in operating income. Subsequent downward movements in asset valuations are charged to the revaluation reserve to the extent that a previous gain was recognised unless the downward movement represents a clear consumption of economic benefit or a reduction in service potential.

Other reserve The balance of this reserve is from the transfer of property to the Trust in 2000-2001.

Income and expenditure reserve The balance of this reserve is the accumulated surpluses and deficits of the NHS foundation trust.

Notes to the Accounts Note 1: Accounting policies and other information 1.1 Basis of preparation Monitor has directed the financial statements of NHS foundation trusts shall meet the accounting requirements of the FT ARM which shall be agreed with HM Treasury. Consequently, the following financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the FT ARM 2014/15 issued by Monitor. The accounting policies contained in that manual follow IFRS and HM Treasury’s FReM to the extent they are meaningful and appropriate to NHS foundation trusts. The accounting policies have been applied consistently in dealing with items considered material in relation to the accounts.

1.1.1 Accounting convention These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention modified to account for the revaluation of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, inventories and certain financial assets and financial liabilities.

1.1.2 Going concern These accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis. International Accounting Standard (IAS) 1, requires management to assess, as part of the accounts preparation process, the NHS Foundation Trust’s ability to continue as a going concern. At the Board meeting held on 30th March 2015, the Board ratified the Trust’s ability to continue on a going concern basis. As a consequence the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

1.1.3 Consolidation 1.1.3.1 Subsidiaries, Associates and Joint Ventures In considering IAS 27 (revised) the Trust is not required to produce consolidated accounts as it has no Subsidiaries (IFRS 10) , Associates (IAS 28), and Joint Venture Arrangements (IFRS 11). 1.1.3.2 Charitable Funds From 2013-14, under the provisions of IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements, those Charitable Funds that fall under common control with NHS bodies should be considered for consolidation within the entities’ Returns. The Trust Board reviewed the charitable funds in March 2014 and again in 2015 and determined them not to be material and therefore not to be accounted for as a subsidiary. (reference IAS 8 ‘Accounting requirements need not be applied to immaterial items).

Note 1.2 Income Income in respect of services provided is recognised when, and to the extent that, performance occurs and is measured at the fair value of the consideration receivable. The main source of income for the trust is contracts with commissioners in respect of health care services. Page 98

Greater Manchester West Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust


Where income is received for a specific activity which is to be delivered in a subsequent financial year, that income is deferred. Income from the sale of non-current assets is recognised only when all material conditions of sale have been met, and is measured as the sums due under the sale contract.

Note 1.3 Expenditure on employee benefits 1.3.1 Short-term employee benefits Salaries, wages and employment-related payments are recognised in the period in which the service is received from employees. The cost of annual leave entitlement earned but not taken by employees at the end of the period is recognised in the financial statements to the extent that employees are permitted to carry-forward leave into the following period.

1.3.2 Pension costs 1.3.2.1 NHS Pension Scheme Past and present employees are covered by the provisions of the NHS Pension Scheme. The scheme is an unfunded, defined benefit scheme that covers NHS employers, general practices and other bodies, allowed under the direction of Secretary of State, in England and Wales. It is not possible for the NHS foundation trust to identify its share of the underlying scheme liabilities. Therefore, the scheme is accounted for as a defined contribution scheme. Employers pension cost contributions are charged to operating expenses as and when they become due. Additional pension liabilities arising from early retirements are not funded by the scheme except where the retirement is due to ill-health. The full amount of the liability for the additional costs is charged to the operating expenses at the time the trust commits itself to the retirement, regardless of the method of payment.. 1.3.2.2 National Employment Savings Pension Scheme (NEST) Under the Pensions Act 2008 employers must offer a pension scheme to all its employees. As from the 1st July 2013, when the scheme came into operation in the Trust (its staging date), staff who are not eligible to join the NHS Pensions Scheme are automatically enrolled into NEST. This scheme is a defined contribution pension scheme created as part of the government’s workplace pensions reforms. Accounting for defined contribution plans requires the Trust to report on the amounts contributed for that period. Consequently, no actuarial assumptions are required to measure the obligation for the expense and there is no possibility of any actuarial gain or loss. The Trust settles its obligations within the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service. Please refer to Note 7.3.7 for further details of the pension scheme.

Note 1.4 Expenditure on other goods and services Expenditure on goods and services is recognised when, and to the extent that they have been received, and is measured at the fair value of those goods and services. Expenditure is recognised in operating expenses except where it results in the creation of a noncurrent asset such as property, plant and equipment.

Annual Report 2014/15

Page 99


Note 1.5 Property, plant and equipment 1.5.1 Recognition

Property, Plant and Equipment is capitalised where: • it is held for use in delivering services or for administrative purposes; • it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to, or service potential be provided to, the Trust; • it is expected to be used for more than one financial year; and • the cost of the item can be measured reliably • items form part of the initial equipping and setting-up cost of a new building, ward or unit, irrespective of their individual or collective cost Where a large asset, for example a building, includes a number of components with significantly different asset lives e.g. plant and equipment, then these components are treated as separate assets and depreciated over their own useful economic lives. (see Note 15.1).

1.5.2 Measurement 1.5.2.1 Valuation All property, plant and equipment assets are measured initially at cost, representing the costs directly attributable to acquiring or constructing the asset and bringing it to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. All assets are measured subsequently at fair value. Land and buildings are stated in the statement of financial position at their revalued amounts as at 31st March 2013. Revaluations are performed with sufficient regularity to ensure that carrying amounts are not materially different from those that would be determined at the end of the reporting period. Fair values are determined as follows: (i) Land and non-specialised buildings – market value for existing use (ii) Specialised buildings – depreciated replacement cost using a Modern Equivalent Asset Valuation IAS16 (34) requires that the accounts reflect changes in asset values. Where insignificant, revaluation may be necessary only every 3 or 5 years. In Monitor’s view property assets are likely to require a full revaluation at least every 5 years, with which the Trust complies. Monitor’s Financial Reporting Manual states (5.5 2014/15 FReM) : ‘There is no predetermined frequency with which assets must be re-valued. Instead, the standard requires that asset values should be kept up to date and that the frequency of revaluation will need to reflect the volatility of asset values. Where assets are subject to significant volatility, then annual revaluations may be required. Conversely, where changes in asset values are insignificant then a revaluation may be necessary only every 3 or 5 years. In Monitor’s view, property assets are likely to require revaluation at least every 5 years.’ The Trust has complied with these recommendation and its latest desk top review was carried out in 2013/14. The Trust’s most recent full revaluation took place on 31st March 2013. Properties in the course of construction are carried at cost. Cost includes professional fees but not borrowing costs, which are recognised as expenses immediately, as allowed by IAS 23 for assets held at fair value. Page 100

Greater Manchester West Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust


For newly acquired or newly constructed assets, a formal revaluation will only be carried out if there is an indication that the initial cost is significantly different to its fair value. Depreciation commences when assets are brought into use, starting from the first complete accounting quarter. The carrying amount for fixtures and equipment is depreciated at historic cost as this is not considered to be materially different from fair value. An increase arising on revaluation is taken to the revaluation reserve except when it reverses an impairment for the same asset previously recognised in expenditure in which case it is credited to the SOCI. A revaluation decrease that does not result from a loss of economic value or services potential is recognised as an impairment charge to the revaluation reserve to the extent there is a balance on the reserve for the asset and, thereafter, to expenditure. Impairment losses that arise from a clear consumption of economic benefit have been taken to the SOCI. Gains and losses recognised in the revaluation reserve are reported as other comprehensive income in the SOCI. 1.5.2.2 Subsequent expenditure Subsequent expenditure relating to an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised as an increase in the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that additional future economic benefits or service potential deriving from the cost incurred to replace a component of such item will flow to the enterprise and the cost of the item can be determined reliably. Where a component of an asset is replaced, the cost of the replacement is capitalised if it meets the criteria for recognition above. The carrying amount of the part replaced is de-recognised. Other expenditure that does not generate additional future economic benefits or service potential, such as repairs and maintenance, is charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income in the period in which it is incurred. 1.5.2.3 Depreciation Items of property, plant and equipment are depreciated over their remaining useful economic lives in a manner consistent with the consumption of economic or service delivery benefits. Freehold land is considered to have an infinite life and is not depreciated. Property, plant and equipment which has been reclassified as ‘held for sale’ ceases to be depreciated upon the reclassification. Assets in the course of construction and residual interests in off-Statement of Financial Position PFI contract assets are not depreciated until the asset is brought into use or reverts to the trust, respectively.

1.5.3. Revaluation gains and losses Revaluation gains are recognised in the revaluation reserve, except where, and to the extent that, they reverse a revaluation decrease that has previously been recognised in operating expenses, in which case they are recognised in operating income. For newly acquired or newly constructed assets, a desk top revaluation is undertaken to determine the fair value of the asset. A formal revaluation will only be carried out if there is an indication that the initial cost is significantly different to its fair value. Revaluation losses are charged to the revaluation reserve to the extent that there is an available balance for the asset concerned, and thereafter are charged to operating expenses. Gains and losses recognised in the revaluation reserve are reported in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as an item of ‘other comprehensive income’.

Annual Report 2014/15

Page 101


1.5.4 Impairments In accordance with the FT ARM, impairments that are due to loss of economic benefits or service potential in the asset are charged to operating expenses. A compensating transfer is made from the revaluation reserve to the income and expenditure reserve of an amount equal to the lower of (i) the impairment charged to operating expenses; and (ii) the balance in the revaluation reserve attributable to that asset before the impairment. An impairment arising from the loss of economic benefit or service potential is reversed when, and to the extent that, the circumstances that gave rise to the loss is reversed. Reversals are recognised in operating income to the extent that the asset is restored to the carrying amount it would have had if the impairment had never been recognised. Any remaining reversal is recognised in the revaluation reserve. Where, at the time of the original impairment, a transfer was made from the revaluation reserve to the income and expenditure reserve, an amount is transferred back to the revaluation reserve when the impairment reversal is recognised. Other impairments are treated as revaluation losses. Reversals of ‘other impairments’ are treated as revaluation gains. Impairments identified by the District Valuer, as a result of the March 2015 review, have been recognised in the accounts.

1.5.5 De-recognition Assets intended for disposal are reclassified as ‘held for sale’ once all of the following criteria are met: • the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms which are usual and customary for such sales; • the sale must be highly probable i.e.: o management are committed to a plan to sell the asset; o an active programme has begun to find a buyer and complete the sale; o the asset is being actively marketed at a reasonable price; o the sale is expected to be completed within 12 months of the date of classification as ‘held for sale’; and o the actions needed to complete the plan indicate it is unlikely that the plan will be dropped or significant changes made to it. Following reclassification, the assets are measured at the lower of their existing carrying amount and their ‘fair value less costs to sell’. Depreciation ceases to be charged. Assets are de-recognised when all material sale contract conditions have been met. Property, plant and equipment which is to be scrapped or demolished does not qualify for recognition as ‘held for sale’ and instead is retained as an operational asset and the asset’s economic life is adjusted. The asset is de-recognised when scrapping or demolition occurs.

1.5.6 Donated, government grant and other grant funded assets Donated and grant funded property, plant and equipment assets are capitalised at their fair value on receipt. The donation/grant is credited to income at the same time, unless the donor has imposed a condition that the future economic benefits embodied in the grant are to be consumed in a manner specified by the donor, in which case, the donation/grant is deferred within liabilities and is carried forward to future financial years to the extent that the condition has not yet been met.

Page 102

Greater Manchester West Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust


The donated and grant funded assets are subsequently accounted for in the same manner as other items of property, plant and equipment.

Note 1.6 Intangible assets Recognition Intangible assets are non-monetary assets without physical substance which are capable of being sold separately from the rest of the trust’s business or which arise from contractual or other legal rights. They are recognised only where it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to, or service potential be provided to, the trust and where the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Internally generated intangible assets Internally generated goodwill, brands, mastheads, publishing titles, customer lists and similar items are not capitalised as intangible assets. Expenditure on research is not capitalised. Expenditure on development is capitalised only where all of the following can be demonstrated: • the project is technically feasible to the point of completion and will result in an intangible asset for sale or use; • the trust intends to complete the asset and sell or use it; • the trust has the ability to sell or use the asset; • how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic or service delivery benefits, eg, the presence of a market for it or its output, or where it is to be used for internal use, the usefulness of the asset; • adequate financial, technical and other resources are available to the trust to complete the development and sell or use the asset; and • the trust can measure reliably the expenses attributable to the asset during development. Software Software which is integral to the operation of hardware, eg an operating system, is capitalised as part of the relevant item of property, plant and equipment. Software which is not integral to the operation of hardware, eg application software, is capitalised as an intangible asset. Measurement Intangible assets are recognised initially at cost, comprising all directly attributable costs needed to create, produce and prepare the asset to the point that it is capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Subsequently intangible assets are measured at fair value. Revaluations gains and losses and impairments are treated in the same manner as for property, plant and equipment Intangible assets held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or “fair value less costs to sell”. Amortisation Intangible assets are amortised over their expected useful economic lives in a manner consistent with the consumption of economic or service delivery benefits.

Note 1.7 Revenue government and other grants Government grants are grants from Government bodies other than income from commissioners or NHS trusts for the provision of services. Where a grant is used to fund revenue expenditure it is taken to the Statement of Comprehensive Income to match that expenditure. The Trust has not received any such grants in 2014/15.

Note 1.8 Inventories The value of stocks and works in progress are deemed to be immaterial to the accounts when consideration is given to the costs of collation and verification, this is in line with Financial Reporting Standard 18 (Page 3 {c}) and IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements which states that specific disclosure requirements set out in individual standards or interpretations need not be satisfied if the information is not material. The Standard also states (at paragraph 44) ‘the benefits derived from information should exceed the cost of providing it’.

Note 1.9 Financial instruments and financial liabilities 1.9.1 Recognition Financial assets and financial liabilities which arise from contracts for the purchase or sale of non-financial items (such as goods or services), which are entered into in accordance with the trust’s normal purchase, sale or usage requirements, are recognised when, and to the extent which, performance occurs, i.e., when receipt or delivery of the goods or services is made. All other financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the trust becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

1.9.2 De-recognition All financial assets are de-recognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the assets have expired or the trust has transferred substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership. Financial liabilities are de-recognised when the obligation is discharged, cancelled or expires.

1.9.3 Classification and measurement Financial assets are categorised as loans and receivables Financial liabilities are classified as” ‘other financial liabilities”.

Greater Manchester West Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust


1.9.4 Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments which are not quoted in an active market. They are included in current assets. The trust’s loans and receivables comprise: cash and cash equivalents, NHS receivables, accrued income and “other receivables”. Loans and receivables are recognised initially at fair value, net of transactions costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost, using the effective interest method. The effective interest rate is the rate that discounts exactly estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset or, when appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset. Interest on loans and receivables is calculated using the effective interest method and credited to the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

1.9.5 Available-for-sale financial assets The Trust does not hold any available-for-sale financial assets. Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets which are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are included in long-term assets unless the trust intends to dispose of them within 12 months of the Statement of Financial Position date.

1.9.6 Other financial liabilities All other financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred, and measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The effective interest rate is the rate that discounts exactly estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability or, when appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount of the financial liability. They are included in current liabilities except for amounts payable more than 12 months after the Statement of Financial Position date, which are classified as long-term liabilities. Interest on financial liabilities carried at amortised cost is calculated using the effective interest method and charged to finance costs. Interest on financial liabilities taken out to finance property, plant and equipment or intangible assets is not capitalised as part of the cost of those assets.

1.9.7 Determination of fair value For financial assets and financial liabilities carried at fair value, the carrying amounts are determined from quoted market prices, independent appraisals and discounted cash flow analysis as appropriate to the financial asset or liability. The provision for Injury Benefit liability cash flows are discounted remain at the Treasury’s discount rate of 1.3% 2014/15 (2013/14 1.8%).

1.9.8 Impairment of financial assets At the Statement of Financial Position date, the Trust assesses whether any financial assets are impaired. Financial assets are impaired and impairment losses are recognised if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events which occurred after the initial recognition of the asset and which has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the asset. For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the revised future cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The loss is recognised in the SOCI and in the case of trade receivables, the carrying amount of Annual Report 2014/15

Page 105


the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance for irrecoverable amounts, and for other financial assets the carrying amount is reduced directly.

Note 1.10 Leases 1.10.1 Finance leases The Trust has no Finance leases as at the 31 March 2015..

1.10.2 Operating leases Other leases are regarded as operating leases and the rentals are charged to operating expenses on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Operating lease incentives received are added to the lease rentals and charged to operating expenses over the life of the lease.

1.10.3 Leases of land and buildings Where a lease is for land and buildings, the land component is separated from the building component and the classification for each is assessed separately.

Note 1.11 Provisions The Trust recognises a provision where it has a present legal or constructive obligation of uncertain timing or amount; for which it is probable that there will be a future outflow of cash or other resources; and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount. The amount recognised in the Statement of Financial Position is the best estimate of the resources required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is significant, the estimated risk-adjusted cash flows are discounted using the discount rates published and mandated by HM Treasury. For employee early departure obligations the Trust has used the HM Treasury’s pension discount rate of 1.3% 2014/15 (2013/14 1.8%) in real terms. A restructuring provision is recognised when the Trust has developed a detailed formal plan for the restructuring and has raised a valid expectation in those affected that it will carry out the restructuring by starting to implement the plan or announcing its main features to those affected by it. The measurement of a restructuring provision includes only the direct expenditures arising from the restructuring, which are those amounts that are both necessarily entailed by the restructuring and not associated with ongoing activities of the entity.

1.11.1 Clinical negligence costs The NHS Litigation Authority (NHSLA) operates a risk pooling scheme under which the NHS foundation trust pays an annual contribution to the NHSLA, which, in return, settles all clinical negligence claims. Although the NHSLA is administratively responsible for all clinical negligence cases, the legal liability remains with the NHS foundation trust. The total value of clinical negligence provisions carried by the NHSLA on behalf of the NHS foundation trust is disclosed at note 29 but is not recognised in the Trust’s accounts.

1.11.2 Non-clinical risk pooling The NHS foundation trust participates in the Property Expenses Scheme and the Liabilities to Third Parties Scheme. Both are risk pooling schemes under which the trust pays an annual contribution to the NHS Litigation Authority and in return receives assistance with the costs of claims arising. The annual membership contributions, and any “excesses” payable in respect of particular claims are charged to operating expenses when the liability arises. Page 106

Greater Manchester West Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust


Note 1.12 Contingencies Contingent assets (that is, assets arising from past events whose existence will only be confirmed by one or more future events not wholly within the entity’s control) are not recognised as assets, but are disclosed in note 29 where an inflow of economic benefits is probable. Contingent liabilities are not recognised, but are disclosed in note 29, unless the probability of a transfer of economic benefits is remote. Contingent liabilities are defined as: • possible obligations arising from past events whose existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the entity’s control; or • present obligations arising from past events but for which it is not probable that a transfer of economic benefits will arise or for which the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.

Note 1.13 Public dividend capital Public dividend capital (PDC) is a type of public sector equity finance based on the excess of assets over liabilities at the time of establishment of the predecessor NHS trust. HM Treasury has determined that PDC is not a financial instrument within the meaning of IAS 32. A charge, reflecting the cost of capital utilised by the NHS foundation trust, is payable as public dividend capital dividend. The charge is calculated at the rate set by HM Treasury (currently 3.5%) on the average relevant net assets of the NHS foundation trust during the financial year. Relevant net assets are calculated as the value of all assets less the value of all liabilities, except for (i) donated assets (including lottery funded assets), (ii) average daily cash balances held with the Government Banking Services (GBS) and National Loans Fund (NLF) deposits, excluding cash balances held in GBS accounts that relate to a shortterm working capital facility, and (iii) any PDC dividend balance receivable or payable. In accordance with the requirements laid down by the Department of Health (as the issuer of PDC), the dividend for the year is calculated on the actual average relevant net assets as set out in the “pre-audit” version of the annual accounts. The dividend thus calculated is not revised should any adjustment to net assets occur as a result the audit of the annual accounts.

Note 1.14 Value added tax Most of the activities of the NHS foundation trust are outside the scope of VAT and, in general, output tax does not apply and input tax on purchases is not recoverable. Irrecoverable VAT is charged to the relevant expenditure category or included in the capitalised purchase cost of fixed assets. Where output tax is charged or input VAT is recoverable, the amounts are stated net of VAT.

Note 1.15 Corporation tax For 2014/15 there is to be no application of Corporation Tax liability. The Trust is a Health Service body within the meaning of s519A ICTA 1988 and accordingly is exempt from taxation in respect of income and capital gains within categories covered by this. There is a power for the Treasury to withdraw the exemption in relation to the specified activities Annual Report 2014/15

Page 107


of a Foundation Trust (s519A (3) to (8) ICTA 1988). Accordingly, the Trust is potentially within the scope of Corporation Tax in respect of activities which are not related to, or ancillary to, the provision of healthcare and where the profits there from exceed £50,000 pa, of which the Trust has none.

Note 1.16 Foreign exchange The Trust has only minimal foreign exchange transactions. Transactions that are denominated in a foreign currency are translated into sterling at the exchange rate ruling on the date of the transaction. Resulting exchange gains and losses are taken to the Income and Expenditure account. All sales of healthcare services are denominated in sterling

Note 1.17 Third party assets Assets belonging to third parties (such as money held on behalf of patients) are not recognised in the accounts since the NHS foundation trust has no beneficial interest in them. However, they are disclosed in a separate note to the accounts in accordance with the requirements of HM Treasury’s FReM.

Note 1.18 Losses and special payments Losses and special payments are items that Parliament would not have contemplated when it agreed funds for the health service or passed legislation. By their nature they are items that ideally should not arise. They are therefore subject to special control procedures compared with the generality of payments. They are divided into different categories, which govern the way that individual cases are handled. Losses and special payments are charged to the relevant functional headings in expenditure on an accruals basis, including losses which would have been made good through insurance cover had NHS foundation trusts not been bearing their own risks (with insurance premiums then being included as normal revenue expenditure). However the losses and special payments note is compiled directly from the losses and compensations register which reports on an accrual basis with the exception of provisions for future losses. Losses and special payments are disclosed in Note 33.

Note 1.19 Transfers of functions to / from other NHS bodies / local government bodies The Trust had no transfers of function from other NHS Bodies in 2014/15. Property was transferred to the Trust on 1 April 2013. The Cost and Accumulated Depreciation/ Amortisation balances from the transferring entity’s accounts were preserved on recognition in the Trust’s accounts.

Note 1.20 Early adoption of standards, amendments and interpretations No new accounting standards or revisions to existing standards have been early adopted in 2014/15. Page 108

Greater Manchester West Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust


Note 1.21 Standards, amendments and interpretations in issue but not yet effective or adopted The Treasury FReM does not require the following Standards and Interpretations to be applied in 2014-15. The application of the Standards as revised would not have a material impact on the accounts for 2014-15, were they applied in that year: IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments - Subject to IFRS 13 - Fair Value - Effective from 1 April 2015 consultation. IFRS 15 - Revenue for Contract with Customers - Effective from 1 January 2017 IAS 19 (amendment) - Employer contributions to defined benefit pension schemes Effective from 2015-16 but not yet EU adopted IAS 36 (amendment) - Recoverable Amount Disclosures - To be adopted from 2015-16 (aligned to IFRS 13 adoption)

IFRIC 21 - Levies - EU adopted in June 2014 but not yet adopted by HM Treasury Note 1.22 Critical accounting estimates and judgements In the application of the Trust’s accounting policies, management is required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The Trust confirms that it has not used any key assumptions concerning the future or had any key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year that need to be disclosed under IAS 1. The provisions have been calculated having recognised an obligating event during the year and include estimates and assumptions relating to the carrying amounts and timing of anticipated payments. Other less significant areas of judgement and estimation techniques (e.g. depreciation and deferred income) have been disclosed in the Trust’s accounting policies and in the notes to the financial statements, as required by the relevant IFRS.

Note 1.23 Current Asset Investments Current Asset investments are short-term deposits which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash at or close to their carrying amounts. They are treated as liquid resources in the cashflow statement.

Note 1.24 Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash is cash in hand, and deposit with any financial institution repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are investments that mature in 3 months or less from the date of acquisition and are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant of change in value. Cash, bank and overdrafts are recorded at the current values of these balances in the Trust’s cash book. Annual Report 2014/15

Page 109


These balances exclude monies held in the Trust bank account belonging to third parties (see third party assets 25.1). Account balances are only set-off where a formal agreement has been made with the bank to do so. Interest earned on bank accounts is recorded as “interest receivable” in the period to which it relates. Bank charges are recorded as operating expenditure in the period to which they relate.

Note 1.25 Research and development Expenditure on research and development is not capitalised.

Note 1.26 Acquisitions and discontinued operations The Trust has no acquisitions or discontinued operations to report on. Activities are considered to be ‘acquired’ only if they are taken from outside the public sector. Activities are considered to be ‘discontinued’ only if they cease entirely. They are not considered to be ‘discontinued’ if they transfer from one public sector body to another.

Note 2: Operating Segments All of GMW’s activities are in the provision of healthcare, which is an aggregate of all the individual specialty components included therein. Similarly, the large majority of the Foundation Trust’s income originates with the UK Whole of Government Accounting (WGA) bodies. The majority of expenses incurred are payroll expenditure on staff involved in the production or support of healthcare activities generally across the Trust together with the related supplies and overheads needed to establish this production. The business activities which earn revenue and incur expenses are therefore of one broad combined nature and therefore on this basis one segment of Healthcare is deemed appropriate. The operating results of the Foundation Trust are reviewed monthly or more frequently by the Trust’s chief operating decision maker which is the overall Foundation Trust Board and which includes senior professional non-executive directors. The Trust Board review the financial position of the Foundation Trust as a whole in their decision making process, rather than individual components included in the totals, in terms of allocating resources. This process again implies a single operating segment under IFRS 8. The finance report considered monthly by the Trust Board contains summary figures for the whole Trust together with graphical line and bar charts relating to different total income activity levels, and directorate expense budgets with their cost improvement positions. Similarly only total balance sheet positions and cash flow forecasts are considered for the whole Foundation Trust. The Board as chief operating decision maker therefore only considers one segment of healthcare in its decision making process. The single segment of ‘Healthcare’ has therefore been identified consistent with the core principle of IFRS8 which is to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of business activities and economic environments.”

The exit packages within the scope of this disclosure have arisen as a result of Organisational restructures. The exit packages within the scope of this disclosure include, but are not limited to, those made under nationally agreed arrangements or local arrangements for which Treasury approval was required. Exit packages in respect of senior managers have been disclosed in the Director’s Remuneration Report Exit costs in this note are accounted for in full as agreed in the year, irrespective of the actual date of accrual or payment. Where the trust has agreed early retirements, the additional costs are met by the trust and not by the NHS Pensions scheme. Ill health retirement costs are met by the NHS pensions scheme and are not included in the above table (refer to note 8).

Note 8: Pension costs Note 8.1 NHS Pension Scheme 8.1.1 Unfunded, defined benefit scheme Past and present employees are covered by the provisions of the NHS Pensions Scheme. Details of the benefits payable under these provisions can be found on the NHS Pensions website at www.nhsbsa.nhs.uk/pensions. The scheme is an unfunded, defined benefit scheme that covers NHS employers, GP Practices and other bodies, allowed under the direction of the Secretary of State, in England and Wales. The scheme is not designed to be run in a way that would enable NHS bodies to identify their share of the underlying scheme assets and liabilities. Therefore, the scheme is accounted for as if it were a defined Page 118

Greater Manchester West Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust


contribution scheme: the cost to the NHS Body of participating in the scheme is taken as equal to the contributions payable to the scheme for the accounting period. In order that the defined benefit obligations recognised in the financial statements do not differ materially from those that would be determined at the reporting date by a formal actuarial valuation, the FReM requires that “the period between formal valuations shall be four years, with approximate assessments in intervening years”.

8.1.2 Accounting valuation A valuation of the scheme liability is carried out annually by the scheme actuary as at the end of the reporting period. This utilises an actuarial assessment for the previous accounting period in conjunction with updated membership and financial data for the current reporting period, and are accepted as providing suitably robust figures for financial reporting purposes. The valuation of the scheme liability as at 31 March 2015, is based on valuation data as 31 March 2014, updated to 31 March 2015 with summary global member and accounting data. In undertaking this actuarial assessment, the methodology prescribed in IAS 19, relevant FReM interpretations, and the discount rate prescribed by HM Treasury have also been used. The latest assessment of the liabilities of the scheme is contained in the scheme actuary report, which forms part of the annual NHS Pension Scheme (England and Wales) Pension Accounts, published annually. These accounts can be viewed on the NHS Pensions website. Copies can also be obtained from The Stationery Office.

8.1.3 Full actuarial (funding) valuation The purpose of this valuation is to assess the level of liability in respect of the benefits due under the scheme (taking into account its recent demographic experience), and to recommend the contribution rates. The last published actuarial valuation undertaken for the NHS Pension Scheme was completed for the year ending 31 March 2012. The Scheme Regulations allow contribution rates to be set by the Secretary of State for Health, with the consent of HM Treasury, and consideration of the advice of the Scheme Actuary and appropriate employee and employer representatives as deemed appropriate.

8.1.4 Scheme provisions The NHS Pension Scheme provided defined benefits, which are summarised below. This list is an illustrative guide only, and is not intended to detail all the benefits provided by the Scheme or the specific conditions that must be met before these benefits can be obtained: The Scheme is a “final salary” scheme. Annual pensions are normally based on 1/80th for the 1995 section and of the best of the last three years pensionable pay for each year of service, and 1/60th for the 2008 section of reckonable pay per year of membership. Members who are practitioners as defined by the Scheme Regulations have their annual pensions based upon total pensionable earnings over the relevant pensionable service. With effect from 1 April 2008 members can choose to give up some of their annual pension for an additional tax free lump sum, up to a maximum amount permitted under HMRC rules. This new provision is known as “pension commutation”. Annual increases are applied to pension payments at rates defined by the Pensions (Increase) Act 1971, and are based on changes in retail prices in the twelve months ending 30 September in the previous calendar year. From 2011-12 the Consumer Price Index (CPI) has been used and replaced the Retail Prices Index (RPI). Early payment of a pension, with enhancement, is available to members of the scheme who are permanently incapable of fulfilling their duties effectively through illness or infirmity. A death gratuity of twice final year’s pensionable pay for death in service, and Annual Report 2014/15

Page 119


five times their annual pension for death after retirement is payable. For early retirements other than those due to ill health the additional pension liabilities are not funded by the scheme. The full amount of the liability for the additional costs is charged to the employer. Members can purchase additional service in the NHS scheme and contribute to money purchase AVCs run by the Scheme’s approved providers or by other Free Standing Additional Voluntary Contributions (FSAVC) providers.

8.2 National Employment Savings Pension Scheme (NEST). Under the Pensions Act 2008 employers must offer a pension scheme to all its employees. As from the 1st July 2013 when the scheme came into operation in the trust (its staging date), staff who are not eligible to join the NHS Pension Scheme are automatically enrolled into NEST. The scheme is a defined contribution pension scheme. Under a defined contribution plan, an entity pays fixed contributions to a separate entity (a fund) and has no obligation to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay employee benefits. Contributions payable to a defined contribution plan are recognised as an expense as the employee provides services in exchange for the contribution. The trust contributes 1% of their pensionable pay. The total contribution by the trust for 2014/15 has been fully charged to expenses in the period. Details of the scheme can be found on the NEST Pensions website at: http://www. nestpensions.org.uk/schemeweb/NestWeb/includes/public/docs/understanding-NEST.PDF. pdf

Note 16: Donations of property, plant and equipment The Trust has not received any donations of property, plant or equipment in 2014/15.

Note 17: Revaluations of property, plant and equipment Note 17.1 Land and Buildings - basis of valuation Land and buildings are stated in the statement of financial position at their revalued amounts as at 31st March 2013. Revaluations are performed with sufficient regularity to ensure that carrying amounts are not materially different from those that would be determined at the end of the reporting period. IAS16 (34) requires that the accounts reflect changes in asset values. Where insignificant, revaluation may be necessary only every 3 or 5 years. In Monitor’s view property assets are likely to require a full revaluation at least every 5 years, with which the Trust complies. Properties in the course of construction are carried at cost. Cost includes professional fees but not borrowing costs, which are recognised as expenses immediately, as allowed by IAS 23 for assets held at fair value. An asset valuation of the Trust’s land and buildings as at 31st March 2013 was carried out by independent professional valuers. Fair values for operational assets were determined as follows :Land and non-specialised buildings - market value for existing use (Existing Use Value). Specialised buildings – depreciated replacement cost using a Modern Equivalent Asset Valuation. The following non-operational asset has been valued at Market Value: Clifton House - Land

Note 17.2 Plant and Equipment The carrying amount for fixtures and equipment is depreciated historic cost as this is not considered to be materially different from fair value.

Note 31: Financial instruments Note 31.1 Financial risk management Financial reporting standard IFRS 7 requires disclosure of the role financial instruments have had during the period in creating or changing the risks a body faces in undertaking its activities. Due to the service provider relationship the Trust has with Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCG): and the way those CCG are financed, the Trust is not exposed to the degree of financial risk faced by business entities. Also financial instruments play a much more limited role in undertaking its activities. creating or changing risk than would be typical of listed companies, to which the financial reporting standards mainly apply. The Trust has restricted powers to borrow or invest surplus funds, and financial assets and liabilities are generated by day-to-day operational activities rather than being held to change the risks facing the Trust in undertaking its activities. The Trust’s treasury management operations are carried out by the finance department, within parameters defined formally within the Trust’s standing financial instructions and policies agreed by the Board of directors. Trust treasury activity is subject to review by the Trust’s internal auditors. Page 132

Greater Manchester West Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust


Note 31.2 Currency Risk The Trust is principally a “domestic” organisation with the great majority of transactions, assets and liabilities being in the UK and sterling based. The Trust has no overseas operations. The Trust therefore has low exposure to currency rate fluctuations.

Note 31.3 Interest Rate Risk The Trust largely finances its capital expenditure from internally generated funds. In addition to this, additional capital expenditure can be financed within an agreed borrowing limit

Note 31.4 Credit risk As the majority of the Trust’s income comes from contracts with other public sector bodies, the Trust has low exposure to credit risk. The maximum exposures as at 31 March 2015 are in receivables from customers, as disclosed in the Trade and other receivables note.

Note 31.5 Liquidity Risk The Trust’s operating costs are incurred under contracts with a range of commissioners Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs), NHS England for Specialist Commissioned services, Local Authorities and Drug Action Teams, under legally binding arrangements. Local Authorities, CCGs and NHS England have their resources voted annually by Parliament. The Trust finances its capital expenditure from internally generated funds.
