The Abbeyfleld Baslldon Society Limited Indopondent AudIt0￿S Report Year Ended 31 Mareh 2024 We assessed thé rok of material misstatement of the financial statemènts. including the risk of material mi$stslem&nt due lo fraud and how it might occur, by holding discussions with managemént and those chargad with governance. We Inquir￿ of management and those charged bwth govemance as to any known instances of non compliance or suspected nonrycompliance with law3 and regulatwjns. Based on this understanding, we desbJned specrfic appropr£ate audit pftxedures lo identify instances of non-compliance w((h laws and regulations. Th1$ included making enquiries of management and those charged V￿th goveman¢e and obtaining additional corrcborative evidence as required. Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, therg is a risk that wg will not detect all irreguLgrities. including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statomenls or non<(*npliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions roflecled in thefinancial statements, as we will be188s likely to become aware of instsn¢es of non-Gompliance. The risk is also greatgr regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery. collush)n, omission OT mi$repre$entalion.
