INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF AZAN DAWAH & COMMUNITY SERVICES
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2024 set out on pages five to seven.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The Charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1992 (the 1993 Act) and that an independent examination is required.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 43 of the 1993 Act
-
to follow the procedure laid down in the General Direction given by the Charity Commission
-
(under section 43(7) of the 1993 Act); and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Direction given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statements below.
Independent Examiner's statement
In the course of my examination, no other matter has come to my attention:
-
Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material aspect, the trustees have not met the requirements to ensure that:
-
a) proper accounts are kept (in accordance with section 41 of the Act); and
-
b) accounts are prepared which agree with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act; or
-
to which, in my opinion , attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
