## STATEMENT OF EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEMBERS' RESPONSIBILITIES 

The Charities Act and the Companies Act require the Executive Committee members to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair  view  of  the state of  affairs of the Society as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit of the Society for the year. In preparing those financial statements the Executive Committee is required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently. 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent. 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern  basis  unless  it  is  inappropriate  to presume that the Society will continue in business. 

- state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended  practice  have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and  explained  in  the  financial statements. 

The Executive Committee members are also responsible for maintaining adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Society and which are sufficient to show and explain the Society's transactions and  enable  them  to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006 and comply with regulations of under the Charities Act. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Society and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The trustees are also responsible for the contents of the Report of the Executive Committee, and the responsibility of the independent examiner in relation to the Report of the Executive Committee is limited to examining the report and ensuring that, on the  face of the report, there are no inconsistencies with the figures disclosed in the financial statements.
