Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts; you consider that the audit requirement of s43 (2) of the Charity's Act 1993 (the Act) does not apply.

Basis of independent examinerfs report My examination was carried out in accordan￿ with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. 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 the seeking of explanations from you as trustees Con￿rning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the eviden￿ that would be required in an audit and, consequenuy, I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. Independent examinerfs statement In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements: a. to keep accounting records in accordance with s41 of the Act; and b. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the Act have not been met", or 2. to which. in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
