Accountants / Independent Examiner's Report To The Trustees
We have examined the financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out on page 4.
Respective responsibilities of the trustees and independent examiner
The charity trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements.
The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 43(2) of the charities Act 1993) (the act).
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts (under section 43 of the Act, as amended);
-
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.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the organisation and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and, seeking explanation from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently, I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
It is my responsibility to form an independent opinion, based on my examination, on those financial statements and to report on my opinion.
Independent Examiner's Statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirement of the Act have not been met.
-
2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
