It also included consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters, The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and, consequently, I do not express full ordered opinion on the view given by the accounts, Independent Examiner's Ststement In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: l.
