Lions Clubs International District 105SC Charitable Trust Reg. No. 1072984 Independent Examiners Report for the year ended 30[th] June 2021
I report on the accounts of Lions Clubs International District 105SC Charity Account for the year ended 30 June 2021 which are set out on pages 7 to 9.
The Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year and that, by its constitution, an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
Examine the Income and Expenditure Account for District 105SC Charitable Trust as prepared by the District Finance Committee (Trustees)
-
To state whether particular matters have come to my attention
Independent examiner’s report on the accounts
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission.
I have completed my examination. I confirm no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
Accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Act or
-
The accounts do not accord with the accounting records
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
