STATEMENTS OF RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
Law applicable to charities in England & Wales requires the Committee to prepare financial statements for each financial year that give a true and fair view of the charity's financial activities during the year of its financial position at the end of the year which is 12 months. In preparing those financial statements, the Committee is required to:
1. Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
2. Make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
3. State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
4. Prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The Executive Committee is responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements Comply with the Charities Act 1993. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

According to the provisions of the Charities Act 1993, the Committee has agreed that an audit is not required for this financial year. However, due to provisions of the same act an independent examiner is required.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT ON THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS TO THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF RESTORATION LIFE MINISTRIES
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”). The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Act and that an independent examination is needed .
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
-
to follow the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Act, and
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention
Basis of independent examiner’s statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. 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 consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
