The auditor, Johnston Carmichael LLP, is deemed to be reappointed under section 487(2) of the Companies Act 2006.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions relating to small LLPs within Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006.
The members are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Limited Liability Partnerships (Accounts and Audit) (Application of Companies Act 2006) Regulations 2008 (the 2008 Regulations) requires the members to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the members have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law).
Under the 2008 Regulations, the members must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the limited liability partnership and of the profit or loss of the limited liability partnership for that period.
In preparing those financial statements, the members are required to:
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the limited liability partnership will continue in business.
Under the 2008 Regulations the members are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the limited liability partnership’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the limited liability partnership and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the requirements of those Regulations. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the limited liability partnership and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
These responsibilities are exercised by the designated members on behalf of the members.
We have audited the financial statements of Taycare Health (Management) LLP (‘the LLP’) for the year ended 31 March 2025, which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, Balance Sheet, the reconciliation of members’ interest and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Basis for opinion
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Members’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the LLP’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Members with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.
We assessed whether the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence and capabilities to identify or recognise non-compliance with laws and regulations by considering their experience, past performance and support available.
All engagement team members were briefed on relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks at the planning stage of the audit. Engagement team members were reminded to remain alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit.
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the LLP and the sector in which it operates, focusing on those provisions that had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The most relevant frameworks we identified include:
Companies Act 2006, as applied to limited liability partnerships;
Statement of Recommended Practice Accounting by Limited Liability Partnerships;
UK Corporation Tax legislation; and
UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
We gained an understanding of how the LLP is complying with these laws and regulations by making enquiries of management and those charged with governance. We corroborated these enquiries through our review of relevant correspondence with regulatory bodies and board meeting minutes.
We assessed the susceptibility of the financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur, by meeting with management and those charged with governance to understand where it was considered there was susceptibility to fraud. This evaluation also considered how management and those charged with governance were remunerated and whether this provided an incentive for fraudulent activity. We considered the overall control environment and how management and those charged with governance oversee the implementation and operation of controls. In areas of the financial statements where the risks were considered to be higher, we performed procedures to address each identified risk. We identified a heightened fraud risk in relation to:
Management override of controls.
In addition to the above, the following procedures were performed to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements were free of material fraud or error:
Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance for reference to: breaches of laws and regulation or for any indication of any potential litigation and claims; and events or conditions that could indicate an incentive or pressure to commit fraud or provide an opportunity to commit fraud;
Reviewing the level of and reasoning behind the LLP’s procurement of legal and professional services
Performing audit procedures over the risk of management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business and assessing judgements made by management in their calculation of accounting estimates for potential management bias;
Completion of appropriate checklists and use of our experience to assess the LLP’s compliance with the Companies Act 2006, as applied to limited liability partnerships; and
Agreement of the financial statement disclosures to supporting documentation.
Our audit procedures were designed to respond to the risk of material misstatements in the financial statements, recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures performed and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the LLP’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006, as applied to limited liability partnerships. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the LLP’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the LLP and the LLP’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
The result for the year arises from the limited liability partnership’s continuing activities.
The individual financial statements of Taycare Health (Management) LLP have been prepared in compliance with United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102, ‘‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland’’ (‘‘FRS 102’’) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to limited liability partnerships by the Limited Liability Partnerships (Accounts and Audit)(Application at Companies Act 2006) regulations 2008 subject to the small LLPs regime.
General information
Taycare Health (Management) LLP is a Limited Liability Partnership domiciled in Scotland. The address of its registered office is Exchange Tower, 11th Floor, 19 Canning Street, Edinburgh, Scotland, EH3 8EH.
The LLP provides Support Services to Taycare Health Limited.
The principal activities of Taycare Health Limited are the financing, design and construction of and the provision of certain services in connection with the Tayside Mental Health Developments Project through an agreement with Tayside Health Board (Legal Organisation). The agreement was entered into under the Government’s Private Finance Initiative Scheme.
The limited liability partnership’s functional and presentation currency is the pound sterling. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historic cost convention in accordance with applicable accounting standards including FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (“FRS 102”) and the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting by Limited Liability Partnerships”.
Whilst some of the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure requirements and accounting policies that Taycare Health (Management) LLP can make under the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting by Limited Liability Partnerships” and FRS 102 may differ from previous UK GAAP, the accounting policies adopted by members are consistent with previous UK GAAP. Consequently, the only changes the members have made on transition to the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting by Limited Liability Partnerships” and FRS 102 relate to the presentation and disclosure of the primary statements and notes.
There has been no impact on the financial position or financial performance as shown under previous UK GAAP at the time of transition to the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting by Limited Liability Partnerships” and FRS 102 or in the comparative period. Consequently, Taycare Health (Management) LLP has not presented the reconciliations and descriptions of the effect of the transition to FRS 102 on the basis that the members have taken advantage of exemptions to retrospective application of FRS 102, permitted by Chapter 35 of FRS 102, “Transition to this FRS”: (i) equity at the date of transition to FRS 102; (ii) equity at the end of the comparative period; and (iii) profit or loss for the comparative period reported under previous UK GAAP.
Capital
The capital requirements of the limited liability partnership are determined from time to time by the partnership. No interest is payable by the LLP in respect of any members’ capital contributions.
No capital shall be withdrawn by any member without the unanimous consent of all other members.
Allocation of profits and drawings
Each member shall be entitled to share in the net profits pro rata to the amount of their respective capital contribution.
The LLP may at anytime during a financial year make such allocations and distributions to the member on account of the anticipated net profits for that financial year as the LLP Board may resolve and the members may unanimously approve.
In the event that, following signing of the annual accounts, it is apparent that any over-allocation of net profits for that financial year have been made to any member, the amount of such over-allocation shall be debited to the current account of that member.
At the time of approving the financial statements, the members have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the members continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
Turnover represents fees for services provided to Taycare Health Limited and is recognised in the appropriate financial period. Turnover is represented net of VAT.
Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting end date.
Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows have been affected. If an asset is impaired, the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.
If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been, had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in profit or loss.
Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or when the limited liability partnership transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity, or if some significant risks and rewards of ownership are retained but control of the asset has transferred to another party that is able to sell the asset in its entirety to an unrelated third party.
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the limited liability partnership after deducting all of its liabilities.
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and loans from fellow group companies, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
