RISHI'S VISION Independent Examiners' Report for the year ended 31 May 2024
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees (who are also the administrators of the charity for the purposes of charity law) 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 Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to: examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and to state whether any matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. 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 the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view, and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention to indicate that:
-
accounting records have not been kept in accordance with Charities Act 2011
-
the accounts do not accord with such records:
-
where accounts are prepared on an accruals basis, whether they fail to comply with relevant accounting requirements and, or are not consistent with the Charities SORP (FRS102)
-
any matter which the examiner believes should be drawn to the attention of the reader to gain a proper understanding of the accounts.
