- 2 Balance Sheet and Notes on the financial accounts 

3 Income and Expenditure Account – Combined Funds (for information only) 

I approve these accounts and confirm that I have made available all relevant records and information for their preparation. 

Date                                         2021                                                   – Treasurer 

## INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE PAROCHIAL CHURCH COUNCIL 

I report on the accounts of the Collegiate Church of St Mary Stafford for the year ended 31[st] December 2020, which are set out on pages 1 and 2. 

As a Church Council you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts and you consider that the audit requirement of section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) does not apply 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 Commissioners under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act and to state whether any particular matters have come to my attention. 

## BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission.  That examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Council and a comparison of the accounts with those records.  It also includes considering any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as Church Councillors 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 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: 

- (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respects the requirements 

   - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or 

   - the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirements that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view’ which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination 

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.
