Based w our understanding of Ihe company aThJ industry. we idents.fy the key laws aThJ regulations affecting the

Management bias In respect of a¢¢cwntin9 estimates and judgements made..
Managemenl override of control.,
Posting of unusual transactions.
We focussed on those area5 that could give rise to a matwial misstatement in the ffinanual stalemenls. Our
procedures induded, bui were rsot limited to-.
Enquiry of management and those charged *ilh govemanee around actual and p)lential litigaticm and
daim$, including instances of norKompliance wrth laws and ￿ula￿"0rtS and fraud,.
Reviewing legal expenditure in the year to kJentify inslan￿$ of nO￿￿)MplIan￿ with laws and regulations
and fraud".
Reviewing finanaal slatement disdosures and lesb.ng to supp)rb"ng docvmentslion to assess compliance
th applicable laws and regulations".
Perfoming audrt work over the risk of mana3ement o¥errhJe of CLYtrds. induding testing of joumal entries
and other adjustmenls for appropnateness, evaluating the business rationale of ￿n￿l¢an1 Iransaclions
outside the nomwl course of bu￿neSS *¥J ieviewng accounb.ng estimates for ts'as.
It is the primary responsibility of management. the oversrghl of those charged governance. to ensure
that the entitys operations are conducted in accordance wth V)e provigons of laws and regulalions and for the
prevention detection of fraL￿.
Because of the inherent limitations of ￿ aLKlit. there is a risk that ￿111 not detect all irregularities. including
those leading lo a material fflisststemenl bn the financial statements or norKompliance with regulation. This risk
increases the more that compliance wth a law or regulatson Is iemoved from the events and transactions
reflected in the financial Statements. as will be k$$ likely to be￿me aware of instances of non-compliance.
The risk is also greater regarding irregularities 0￿Ur￿n9 due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves
intentional concealment. forgery, collusion. omisgon or misrepresentation.
