INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF PEOPLE ACTIVITES COMMUNITY ACHIEVEMENT
Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial period that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of its income and expenditure for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the Directors are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue as a going concern;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departure disclosed and explained in the financial statements.
The Directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

| Respective responsibilities | As the Charity’s Trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the |
|---|---|
| of trustees and examiner | accounts; you consider that the audit requirement of section 43 (2) of the |
| Charities Act 1993 (the Act) does not apply. It is my responsibility to | |
| state, on the basis of procedures specified in the General Directions given | |
| by the Charity Commissioners under section 43 (7)(b) of the Act, whether | |
| particular matters have come to my attention. |

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 41 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.
