(a)Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Baseera on accounts for the year ended 31 March 2024 Set out on pages 5 to 7** 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

- It is my responsibility to: 

   - -examine the accounts under section 145 of the Act; 

-to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 145 (5) (b) of the Act 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  Commissioners.  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 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. 

## **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 130 of the Act; and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the Act have not been met; or 

- 2)To which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. 

The appointed independent examiner of the trust:
