onsibilities of trustees and examiner
The CharilVs Trustees are responsible for the preparatK)n of the acC￿V￿ts. The Charity's Twslees
nsider that an audit is not required for this year under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 {'the
Charities Act,) and that an independent examinath)n k8 needed.
Having satisfied myself that the Charty i8 not suty'ect to audil under Part 16 of the Ccrfnpanies Act
2(￿ and is eligible for independent exarninalw)n. r( is my re$￿sibIlity to:
examine the accounts und8r Sedion 145 of the 20f 1 ACL
followthe procedures la￿ down in the General Direclionsgiven by the Charitycc¥nmi5s￿)n under
Section 145151{b) of the 2011 Act- and
State whother Part￿Ular mattws have come to my attenlw)n.
Basis of inde
ndent examiner's re
My examinatron was Ca￿led oui in aCC￿dan￿ ¥rilh the Gew81 Direcbons given by the Charity
Commission. An examination includes a review of Ihe accoynting re￿(d$ kept by the Charity and a
comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also indudes consideration of any
unusual rterns or disclosures in the accounts. and the seeking of explanations from you as Truslees
conceming any suth matters. The PTCtedures undertaken do not provKJe all the ewdence that would
be required in an audit and. ¢>Jnsequenlly. no opinion is given as lo whether the acc¢xJnts present a
rue and fair vwf and the repMNt is limited to those matters set out in the ststement below.
Inde
endent examinerfs ststement
Since Somerset Counselling Centre's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a
member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confinn that l am qsjalffied to undertake the
ex8minalion because l am a memt¢r of the Institute of Chartered Ac£ountsnts IA England and Wales.
which is one of the lisled bc¥Jies.
In COnnect￿n wth my exaMr￿10n. no matter ha5 rnme to my attentK)n".
(1) %¥thich gives me ￿asonable cause to bet¢eve that. in any malerial respect, the requirements..
to keep accounling records in accordan￿ wilh Section 130 of Ihe Charities Act., and
to prepare accounts whth ￿0rd V•ith the accA>unting records and comply with the
accounting requirements of the Compan*s Act have nol been met or
121 lo which. in my opin￿n. attention shwkl b8 drawn in order to enable a proper understandiw of
the accounts to be reached.
