An examination includes a VIeW of the accounting records k¢pi by the PCC and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosurcs in the accounts and seeking explanations from ihe trUstecmCrnb¢rs concerning any such matters. The procedures undcrtakcn do noi provide all the evidence that would be required in a full audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whcther the accounts present a 'true and fair, view and the r¢port is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
