The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report.

GRIMSBY YOUTH ZONE Independent auditor's report to the members of Grimsby Youth Zone {continued) Matt•rs on which we are required to report by exception In the light of the knowledge and undeislanding of the charity and ils environment obtained in the course ol the audit, we have nol identified malerial misstat¢menls in the directors, report included with the trustees. report. We have nothing lo report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion.. adequate and Pfoper a￿OuntIng records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us., or the financial siatements are not in agreement with the accounting records and retums.. or certain disclosures ol trustees, remuneration specified by law are not rnade., or we have not received all the information and explanations we ￿qUIre for our audit., or the. triJ.8tgps were not pntitled to prepare the financial 8latpment% in ¥etrordt)ncp. with Ihg small campanies regime and take advantage of the small companies exempts'ons in preparing Ihg Iruslees, report and from the requir&menl lo prepare a strategic report. Responsibilities of trustoes As explained more fully in the trustees. responsibilities statement, the trustees, Iwho are also the directors of the charitable Company for the purposes of company lawl are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being Satisfied that they give 8 true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable thè preparation of financial statements that are free frorn material rnisstatement. whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the finan¢i81 statements. the trustees are responsible for assessing Ihe charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as appli¢able. matters related lo going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the Company or lo cease operations, or have no realistic alternative bul lo do so. Auditorfs responslbllltias for thè audit of the financial 5tatement5 Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial slalemenls as a whole are free from material misslalemenl, whether due to fraud Dr error, and to issue an auditor's report that includtrs our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assuran￿, but is not a guaranlee that an audit condLJCted in accordance with ISAS IUKI will always delect 8 material misslalernenl when il exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or 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 slalemenls. The extent to which our pro¢edurgs are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.. Based on our understanding of the charity, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations relatèd lo company. employment and financial reporting legislation and we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011. We assessed the susceptibility of the company's financial statements lo material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might o¢¢ur, by making enquiries of management, considering the internal conlrols in place and discussion amongst the engagement team. W& detemined that the principal risk5 were related to the recognition of income and expenditure on fixed assets. In response to the risks identified we designed procedures which included, bul were not limited lo reviewing Trijc -lee5 Fllealing minutes, examining the donation recnrdo anA ès¥Jniininn t!?ts le*ots agrtsemenl aD.d expendilu invoices for the development. There are inherent limitatlDns in the audit procedLJres described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-¢omplian¢e. Malerial misstalements that arise due lo fraud can be harder lo delecl than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.
