As the charity rt ustees you ra e responsible for the rp eparation of the accounts. The charity rt ustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under Section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:
-
Examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Act
-
Follow the rp ocedures laid down in the General D ri ections given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act and
-
State whether particular matters have come to my attention
BASIS OF IN D EPEN D ENT EXA M INE R ’S R EPO R T
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General D ri ections given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts rp esented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanation rf om you as rt ustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently dI o not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts and the report is limited to those matters set out in the report below.
IN D EPEN D ENT EXA M INE R ’S STATE M ENT
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 Act; and
-
to p repare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the Act
have not been met; o r
(2) to which in my opinion attention should be drawn in rdo er to enable a rp oper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
