Section B Disclosure

Only complete if the examiner needs to highlight matters of concern (see CC32, Independent examination of charity accounts: directions and guidance for examiners).

Give here brief details of any items that the examiner wishes to disclose .

No comments of concern to report. However, the Independent Examination can only confirm the amount of receipts received in respect of Parentpay/Gateway. It cannot reconcile the amounts received to any paperwork so it is assumed that the staff Management and Trustees are happy that this is virtually audited via the software.
