INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT
| Date | : | 14 March 2022 |
|---|---|---|
| Our Ref | : | |
| To | : | The Trustees of the Northern Counties Pony Association |
I report on the accounts to the charity for the year ended 31[st] December 2021 which are set out as attached:
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
Examine the accounts (under section 43 of the Act)
-
Follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Commission (under section 43 (7)(b) of the Act)
-
State whether any particular matters have come to my attention
Basis of independent examiner’s statement
My examination was conducted in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.
Independent examiner’s statement
Upon examination I am happy to report that the accounting records are kept in accordance with section 41 of the Act and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act.
I am satisfied that the trustees have met the requirements to ensure proper accounting records are kept
