appropllale to provide a basis for our opinion.
We obtained an (tnderstanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks within which the cl)arilable
company operates, focusing on those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the delerminalion
of material amounts and disdosures in the financial slatemenls. The laws and regulations we
considered in this context were the Companies Act 2006. Charities Act 2011 and Charilies SORP IFRS
10212019. We assessed the required compliance wilh these laws and regulations as part of our audit
procedures on the related financaal statement items.
In addition. we considered provisions of other laws and regulations that do not have a direci effect on
the financial stslements but compliance with whth might be fundamental to the charitable company's
ability lo operate or to avoid a material penalty- INe also consh4ered the opwrtunilies and incenlNes
that may exist wrthin the charity for fraud.
We identified the greatest risk of material impacl on the financial statements from irregularilie5, including
fraud. lo be the override of controls by management. Our audit pr￿ed￿re$ lo respond lo these risks
included enquiries of management about their own identrficalion and assessment of the risks of
irregularities. sample lesling on the posting of joumals. reviewing accounting eslimales for biases.
reviewing regulatory correspondence including that with the Charity Commiss*)n and reading minutes
of meetings of those Charged with govemance.
Owing lo the inherent limitations of an audit. there 15 an unavopyable risk that we may not have detected
some material misstatements in the financial stalemenls. even though we have propedy planned and
perfomied our audit in accordance wrth auditing standards. For example, the further removed non-
compliance with law5 and regulations lirregukritiesl is from the events and Iransact¢ons reflected in the
financial stalemenls. the less likety the inherenlty limited procedures required by auditing standards
would identify it. In addition, as with any audit. there remained a higher risk of non-delects'on of
irregularities. as these may involve collus¢on. forgery. intentional omission5. mi5represenlalions, or the
override of internal Controls. We are not ￿sponsible for pieventing non-compliance and cannot be
expected lo delect non-complian￿ with all laws and regulats'ons.
These inherent limitations are parlicularty swJnfficanl in the ease of misslalemenl resurting from fraud
as Ihis may involve sophi51icaled schemes designed to avoid detectTon. including deliberate failure lo
record Iransaclrons. collusion or the provision of intentional miSrep￿sen￿¢l9ns.
