Basis of Independ¢nt
Examiner"s Report
My examination was carried out in acwrdance 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 explanatious from you as Trnstees 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 OP2nion on the view given by the accounts.
Independent
Examiner's Statement

attention-

accounts which accord with the accounting records and to
comply with the accountlng requirements of the Act have
not been met, or
(2) to which. in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order
to ¢nable a proper und¢rstanding of the aceounts to be
