RESOLVED:

(1)  
That the Charities Sub-Committee approved the information required
by the Charities Commission for the five registered charities, so
that the returns can be submitted prior to the 31st January 2026
deadline.

(2)  
That the Charities Sub-Committee noted the requirement for those
charities with gross income of more than £25k in their
financial year to have their accounts independently examined and,
as this applies to King George’s Field and Hitchin Town Hall
Gymnasium and Workmans Hall, instructs this to be undertaken for
those accounts for 2024/25. This will be undertaken by the Shared
Internal Audit Service (SIAS).
 
REASON FOR
DECISIONS: To facilitate the submission of approved returns
to the Charities Commission.
