520 _aStatement of Recommended Practice (SORP) aiming to narrow areas of difference of accounting within the social housing sector by recommending preferred accounting treatments. The Accounting Standards Board (ASB) has authorised the National Housing Federation (NHF), Community Housing Cymru (CHC) and the Scottish federation of Housing Associations (SFHA) to issue this document collectively, requiring them to abide by the regulations of the ASB. The overall purpose of the SORP is to provide guidance on formats and accounting policies which will enable social landlords to comply with the existing accounting requirements, but should not be viewed as an alternative to the requirements themselves.
520 _aReaders of this title should also look at the document International Financial Reporting Standards (L142984), as they will impact on the SORP in future.
