Chorley Muslim Trust
Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Chorley Muslim Trust
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Chorley Muslim Trust (the Trust) for the period ended 31 July 2022.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 ("the Act").
The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Act and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
l examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
l to follow the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Act, and
-
l to state whether particular matters have come to my attention
Basis of independent examiner’s statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given 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 such 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 accounts present a 'true and fair' view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
l the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
- l the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
l the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
The appointed independent examiner of the trust:
