Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Oatlands COMMUNITY Centre CIC, Charity Registration Number
For the year ended 31[st] March 2024
Responsibilities and Basis of Report
The Charity Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”). The Charity Trustees consider that the audit requirement of Section 144 of the Act does not apply and that an independent examination is needed.
I report solely on the provided accounts for year ending 31[st] March 2024) of Oatlands Community Centre CIO which are set out within the pages of these accounts
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act and in accordance with guidance set out in their publication CC32, “Independent Examination of Charity Accounts” and following all procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145 (5) (b) of the 2011 Act.
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 considering any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from 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 accounts.
Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of Oatlands Community Centre CIC
In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
- which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect:
a) the accounting records were not kept in accordance with Section 130 of the Act; or
b) the accounts do not accord with those records; or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
Scope of Work
My examination involved the following:
-
Comparing the accounts with the underlying records.
-
Considering whether the accounts comply with the accounting policies stated and any applicable requirements of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP).
-
necessary.
Conclusion
disclosure under Section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act 2011. I am satisfied that the accounts comply with the relevant statutory requirements and provide a true and fair view of the financial position of the charity as at year end 31[st] March 2024.
Declaration
This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees as a body, in accordance with Section 145 of the Act. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity’s trustees those matters I am required to state in an independent examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for my work or for this report.
