IMPLICATIONS OF COVID19

7      The preparation timeline for the DCC Group annual report should not be impacted by the current alert level for Covid19.  If the alert level were to increase beyond level one, then the timeline may come under pressure.

8      Audit New Zealand have produced reporting bulletins on matters likely to be impacted by the current environment.  In particular, reference has been made to valuation of property.  For the 2019/20 financial year the DCC will be revaluing the following items of Property, Plant & Equipment:

·           Roading Assets 30 June 2020 – fair value based on depreciable replacement cost

·           Three Waters 1 July 2019 – fair value based on depreciable replacement cost

·           Restricted Assets (Parks & Recreation) 30 June 2020 – fair value

·           Investment Property 30 June 2020 – fair market value

9      The valuers engaged to complete these valuations will be well versed on the implications associated with the current environment – in particular the likely impact on the value of the DCC Investment Property portfolio.

 

10    In terms of the balance of land and buildings not due for revaluation until year ended 30 June 2021, we will provide an internal assessment, supported by guidance from our valuers where appropriate, on whether the carrying values need to be amended.

11    In terms of the DCC consolidated accounts, the main matter for consideration will be the valuation of the Dunedin Railway assets.  The DCHL Group Accountant will work with Audit New Zealand on this matter.

 

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

NZ IRFS 16 Leases

12    Effective date 30 June 2020 for profit entities.

13    Staff will liaise with Group Accountant around any material impact of the DCC consolidated accounts.

PBE IPSAS 35 Consolidated Financial Statements

14    Effective date 30 June 2020.

15    The standard provides an updated definition of control of entities owned by the DCC and when full consolidation is required.

16    An assessment will be performed on whether previously separated entities need to be consolidated.

OPTIONS

17    Not applicable.

NEXT STEPS

18    The timetable will continue to be updated as tasks are completed.
