Stakeholders are reminded that some previously issued amendments are not mandatory until future reporting periods. Earlier editions, and separate details of each amendment, continue to be available on the FRC’s website. Editorial corrections are not intended to change requirements but may improve readability or update external references.
The FRC will continue to engage with stakeholders ahead of implementation of the amendments outlined above. In addition to the September 2024 editions of UK and Ireland Accounting Standards, the FRC will also be publishing updated staff factsheets to support preparers implementing the ‘Periodic Review 2024 amendments’.
