The Board of Trustees is collectively responsible for setting the organisation's objectives and business plans, providing effective leadership, setting an effective framework of prudent controls to enable risk within the business to be managed, and reviewing on an ongoing basis the performance of the organisation. The Board reserves the making of certain decisions to itself and in other cases delegates the power to Committees and senior management. The Board meets quarterly, and its main responsibilities are listed below: corporate governance approval of strategy approval of the budget and business plan approval of major capital expenditure contracts approval of accounting policies, particularly on reserves and investments approving the senior management establishment levels authority to amend the salary scale approval of other employment terms and conditions authority to terminate contracts of employment for the Chief Executive and senior management approval of the annual accounts managing risk With regards to the setting of staff remuneration levels the Board has considered the National Council for Voluntary Organisations (NCVO) guidance on this subject. The Committees report to the Board on their activities on a regular basis and put forward recommendations for action. ln addition to attending the Board and Committee meetings, the Trustees also make themselves available between the scheduled Board meetings to attend other meetings and to provide guidance and advice as appropriate in relation to the business activities of Carers Trust. The contribution of individual Trustees should not therefore be assessed solely by reference to the number of Board meetings attended. When Trustees were unable to attend meetings because of business or personal commitments they had the opportunity to review the papers beforehand and raise issues or questions with the Chair or Committee Chair as appropriate. Trustee appointments are made in accordance with the Articles. Trustees representing the Network are elected by the Network Partner organisations. Other Trustee appointments are made following the Board's careful consideration of the collective skills required for effective governance. New Trustees meet with the Chair and senior management as part of their inítial induction as a Trustee, as a result of which further training and induction needs are individually identified. Board members were fully involved with the development of the organisation's new Strategic Framework, which was approved by the Board in June 2016. This included a number of Board and senior management consultation days during late 20lSlearly 2016. All Trustees of Carers Trust give their time voluntarily and received no benefits from the charity. Expenses for reasonable travel expenses reclaimed from the charity are set out in note 8 to the accounts. The main Board Sub-Committees are listed below: Audit Committee . meets as required with the Charity's external auditors and relevant senior management . takes delegated responsibility for ensuring there is a framework of accountability for examining and reviewing all systems and methods of control, both financial and otherwise, including risk analysis and risk management 3 Carers Trust Report and consolidated financial statements for the year ended 3l March 2017 STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT (continued) ensures Carers Trust is complying with all aspects of the law, relevant regulations and good practice in its financial dealings a advises the Board on best practice for risk management and practices Finance and General Purposes Committee . meets quarterly in advance of Board meetings . recommends the annual budget for Carers Trust and changes to it . monitors all aspects of financial performance and makes appropriate recommendations to the Board . agrees procedures for financial controls . recommends staff remuneration levels and benefits o develops and maintains sound people management and employment policies Network o reviews membership criteria and conditions of Network Partners . regularly reviews the Member Scheme Agreement and Principles of Partnership for approval by the Board and the Partnership Forum o nìârìâgês and mediates competition between Network Partners o nìârìâgês issues concerning Network Partner areas of benefit and names Appointments and Nominations o reviews various aspects of size, structure and composition of the Board, plus any recruitment thereto . oversees the recruitment and remuneration of senior members of the management team.
