Financial Review

Law applicable to charities in England & and Wales Requires the Trustees to prepare
financial statement for each financialyear, which givesa true and fairview of the charity's

financial statements, the trustees are required to:
{a I Select suita ble accounti ng pol icies a nd apply consistently

{c} State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended
practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the
f i na ncia15tatements,'
{dl Prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to
presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping account records, which discloses with reasonable
accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that
the financial statements comply with the charity act 1993. They are also responsible for
safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the
prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities,
Reserve Policy of the charity that is unrestricted funds which have not been designated

expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will endure that, in the event
of a significa nt drop i n f undi ng, they wi I I be a ble to conti nue the charity's current activities
while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised.
WESTMSNSTER BANGLADESHI WELFARE TURST will actively work to achieve this level of
reserves.

satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

circumstances consistently applied and adequately disclosed. The procedures undertaken
do not provide all the evidence that would be required and adequately disclosed. The
