Respectlve
rgsponsibillties of
trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts.
The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year
under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 ("the Charities Act.) and that an
independent examination is needed. IThe charity's gross income exceeded
£250,000 and l am qualified to undertake the exarnination by being a
qualified member of [named bodyJ]. Delete [ ] if not applicable.
It is my responsibility to..
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the
Charily Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and
to slate whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given
examiners gtatement 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 the
trustees concerning any Buch 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 accounls present a true
and fair, view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the
statement below.
Independent In connection wilh my exarnination, no matter has corne to my attention
examiner's ststement (other than that disclosed below '}
1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect,
the requiremerrts:
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the
Charities Act" and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and
comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act
have not been met; or
2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn In order to enable
proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
