It is my responsibility to: examine the accounts (under section 43 of the Act, as amended), to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 43(7)(b) of the Act, as amended), and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees con￿mIng any such matters. The prO￿dureS undertaken do not provide all the eviden￿ that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.
