REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRu¥fEES OF HosprrAL OF THE BLESSED MARY Responsibilities of trustees As explained more fully in the Trustee5' Responsibile5 Ststemen¢ the trustees are reSnsib for the prepathon of the financial strdtements whith give a true and fair view, and for such ir)ternal control as the trustees determlne is netrssary to enable the pparation of financial statements that are frEe from materièl misststemen¢ wlther due to fraud or error. In preparing the finanoal tements, the tsustees are responsible for assessing the charivs abllty to contfnue as a going COnrn, disclosing, as applicable. matters related to going conrn and using the going cOnM basis of accounting unless the trusiees e¥ther intsnd to liquidate th. charity or to 3$e operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Our rtsponsibilities for the audtt of the financlal statements We have been appointed as 3uditors under SeotiDn 144 of the charfe$ Art 2011 and report in accordan with the Art and relevant regulatii)ns made or having effett thereunder. Our objeth.ves are to obtain reasonable assurdnce about whether the finawal strdtements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fral or error, and tD issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assuran is è high level of assuraTh, but is not a gua¥antee that an audit condutted in accordan with TSAS (UK) will always detett a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered tnaterkil rf, indNidually or in the aagregate, they could asONablY be extkcted to influence the economic decisions of users tsken on the basis of these financial *tements. Irregularities, induding fraud, are instsnces of non-complian wth w5 and regulations. We design procedures in line with our sponsIbl1es, ouuined above, to detert material misststements In respert of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our proureS are Capab of detecting irregularities, induding fraud is detailed below: Our approach to entifyIng and aesSing the risks of materkAI misststement in respect of irregularf(ies, including fraud and non-cornplian wth laws and wulations, was as follows- - the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectyvely had the appropriate competenTr, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-o)rnpliance with applible laws and regulations- we identEfied the laws and regulations applicable to the company through discussions wtrh directors and other management, and from our commercial knowledge and experie11 of the settor- we focused on speafic laws and regulations which we consided may have a dirert material effett on the financial statements or the opetBtions of the company, induding legiilthn such as the Companies Att 2006 and taxation legi51ats.on we assessed the extent of Complian with the kws and re.gulaVons identified ave through making enquiries of management and inspetting legal corresrrtindeno, where apicable. and identified laws and regulations were c£)mmunicated wthin tr.e audlt team regularty and the team remained alert to inStsn$ of non-complian throughout the audit. We assessed the su5TrPtibility of the company's finanaal sLatements to material misstatement, In(auding obtsining an understsnding of how fraud rnight occur, by.. making enquiries of management as to where they considerpd there was susceptibilty to frdud, their knowledge of attual, suspected and alleged fraud; and considering the intemal controls in place to rngate risks of fnud and non-comp1iall with laws and regulations. To address the tisk of fraud through management bias and over-ide of controls, we- performed analytical prOdureS to identify any unusual or unexikctsd relationships- - tested journal enknes to identify unusual transactions. assessed whether judgements and assurnptions mje in determining the accounting estimates Set out in the accounb.ng poliaes were inditiVe of potential bias. and - investigated the ratignaie behind signrfiont or unusual trdnxaons. Ill response to the risk of irregUlarleS and nOnOmplian laws regulations, we designed procedures which induded, but were not limited to-. agreeing finanaal ststement disclosures to underlwng SUPPDrbiig dLKumentstion- enquiring of management as to artual and potentsl litigation and daims. and reviewing correswlldence w(£h HMRC, relevant regulators an6 the companys legal advisors. where aplble.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDEwf AUDThORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF HOsPAL OF THE BLESSED MARY Be(zuse of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk. that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misststement in the financial ststernents i)r non-complian wh regulation. This risk increases the MO that Complian with a law or regulation is removed from the evènts and trdnsacbons refletted rn the finanoal strdtements, as we will less likely to become aware of inknn.s Df non£Omplian. The risk is also greater regarding irregularttie5 occurring due to fraud rather than error, as frdud invotves intentionol concealment, forgery, collusion, omi4ion or Misresentratton. A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Repc*rbng Counctl's website at www.frc.org.uVauditorsresponsibilities.
