Auditor's responsibilities for thè audit of the financial statements We have been appointed as aLJdilor undef section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulalh)ns made or having effect theieunder. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the finan￿87 statetnents a whole are free from tnateiial misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditol's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assuran￿ is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS IUKI wll always detect a material misslatemenl when it exists. Misstatements can aiise frotn fiaud 01 error and are considered material if. individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected lo influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. The extent lo which our procedures ale capable of detecting irregularities, induding fraud, is detailed below. As part of our planning process.. We enquired of management the systems and controls the chaiity has in place, the areas of the financial statements that are mostly susceptible to the risk ol irregularities and f18ud. and whether there was any known, suspected or alleged fraud. The charity did not inform us of any known. Suspected 01 alleged fraud. We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to the charity. We delermined that the following were Tn05t relevant.. FRS 102, Charities Act 2011 & the Health and Safely act 1974. We considered the incentives and opportunities that exist in the charity. iwluding the extent of management bias, whi¢h piesent a potential for irfegularilies and fraud to be perpetuated. and tailored our risk assessment accordingly. Usin9 our knowledge of Ihe charity, together with the discussions held with the tharity al the planning stage. we formed 8 conclusion on the iisk of misstaternent due to irregularities induding fraud and tailored our procedures according to this risk assessment. In response to the risk of irregu5aTities and non-rnpliance with laws and regulations, induding fraud. we designed procedures which induded.. Enquiry of management and those charged with g0veMan￿ around actual and potential 15bgation and claims as well a5 actual, suspected and alleged traud., Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance.. - Assessing the extent ol Complian￿ with the laws and regulations considered lo h8ve a direct tnaterial effect on the financial statements or the operations of the enlity through enquiry and inspection., Reviewing financial statetnent disclosures and testing to supporting documentation lo assess ctsmplianee with applicable law5 and regulation5', Performing audit work over the iisk of management bias and override of controls, including lesling of joum81 entries 8nd other adjustments for appropriateness. evaluating the business rationale of signfficallt transactions outside the norrnal course of business and reviewing accounting estimates for indicators of potential bias. There are inherent limitations in the audrt procedures described above. The mole removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Audits"ng standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compli8nC8 Wlth laws and regulations to enquiry of the d1￿ClorS and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. The risk of not detecting a materkil mi5$1alernenl resulting from fraud is higher than one resulting from error, as fi8ud may involve collL*Sh)n, forgery. intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of intemal control. 10
