Our approach to detecting irregularities induded. bul was not limited lo, the following". obtaining an understsnding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable lo the Charitable Company and how the Charitsble Company is complying with that framework. including agreement of financial statement dis¢losures lo undedying documentation and other ewdence., obtaining an understandin9 of the Charitable Company's control enwronmenl and how the Charitable Company has applied r@18v3nl control procedures. through discussions wih Tru5tee5 and other management and by performing walklhrough testing over key areas,. obtaining an understanding of the Charitable Company's risk assessmgnt Pr￿esS. including Ihg risk of fraud." reviewing meeting minutes of those charged with governance throughout Ihe year: and performing audit testing to address the risk of management override of controls. induding testing journal entries and other adjuslmenls lor appropriateness, evaluating Ihe business rationale of significant transactions OLJlside the normal course of business and reviewng accounting estimates lor bias. Whilst considefing how our audit work addressed the detection of Irregularitie5, we also considered the likelihood of detection based on our approach. Irregularities arising from Iraud are inherenlly more difficult lo del8cl than those arising from error. Because ol the inherent limilalitMs of an audit. there is 8 risk that we will not detect all irre9ularities, including those18ading to a materi81 misst81emenl In the financial statements or non.cornpliance wth regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed frorn the events and transactions reflecied in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware ol instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error. ai fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion. omission or misrepresentation.
