unusual items or di5c105ures in the account5 and seeking explanations from you as Trustees
concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence thatwould

'tfue and fair view" and report is 5imited to those matter5 set out in the Statement below.

In connettion with my examination no matter have come to my attention which 8ives me
reasonable cause to believe that in any matèrial respect the requirements..
to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 41 of the 1993 Act and
to prepare accounts which wlth the accounting records and comply with the accountlng
requirement5 of the 1993 Act, have not been met or
