Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free
from material misstaternent, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an audilo¢s report that includes our
opinion. Re8s0nable assurance Is a high level ol assurance. but Is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance wtth ISAS (UK) wll a￿ayS detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstalernenls can arise
from fraud or error and are considered material if. individually or in the aggregate, they coulcl reasonably be
expected to influence the economic decision5 of users taken on Ihe basis of these financial statements.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial
