Independent
examiner's ststemeDt
In connection with my examination. no matter has come to my
attention:
{1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in. any
material respect, the requirements:
to keep accounting records in accordance with section
130 of the Charities Act., and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting
records and comply with the accounting requirements of
the Charities Act have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion. attention should be drawn in
order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts
to be reached.
