ST. JOHN THE EVANGELIST, OVER

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2022

In accordance with instructions given the accounts, which are set out on pages 3 to 7, have been prepared from the accounting records and explanations presented.

The members of St. John The Evangelist Parochial Church Council are responsible for the preparation of the accounts and have considered that there is no requirement to perform an audit.

The examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by St. John The Evangelist Parochial Church Council and a comparison of the accounts with these records. It also includes considering any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements and seeking explanations from officers of St. John The Evangelist Parochial Church Council concerning such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently an audit opinion is not expressed on the view given by the accounts.

In connection with the examination, no other matter has come to attention:

  1. which gives reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements, to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records available and comply with accounting requirements, have been met.

  2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
