Our approach lo identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. was as follows.. the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identfy or recognise non-compliance wilh applicable laws and regulations", we identified the laws and regulalions applicable lo the Charity through discussions wrth Truslees and other management, and from our knowledge and experien￿ of the not-for-profil sector.. we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the charity, including the CharilEs Act 2011. the Charities SORP 2019, and data protection. anli-bribery, employment. environmental and health and safety legislalion., we assessed the extent of compliance wilh the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal c0rreskK)nden￿". and 18

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT Continued identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert lo instances of non<0mplian￿ throughout the audit. We assessed the SuS￿pIlblIIty of the charity's financial statements to material misslatemenl, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur. by.. making enquiries of Trustees and management as lo where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud- considering the internal controls in place lo mitigale risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we.. performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships- lesled journal entries lo identify unusual transactions- assessed whelherjLFdgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting eslimales were indicative of potential bias," and irivesligaled the rationale behind signifi{￿nt or unusual transactions. In response lo the fisk of irregularilies and rton-compliance WFth laws and regU￿tions. we designed procedures which included, bul were not limited to= agreeing financial slalemenl disclosures to underfying supporting documenlalion- reading the minutes of meetings of the toard of Tnjslees., enquiring of management as to actual and polenthal liligalion and daims; and reviewing correspondence with relevant regulators and the charily's legal advisors. There are inherent limitations in our audit prO￿dureS described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial Iransaclions. the less likety it is that we would become aware of non- compliance. Auditing standards also limit Ihe audrt procedures required lo Klentify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the Trustees and olher management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. Material misslalements that arise due to fraud can be harder lo delect than Ihose Ihal arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.
