This is explained as due to access being unavailable at the time of the accounts and unknown if any balance was remaining in that account. The Charity has made a coThection to its balance brought forward and l am now satisfied that all funds of the charity are reported correctly now and it was an honest error in the prior year not to be replicated in the future.
