Basis of Independent Examinerfs Ststement My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Direction5 given by the Charity Commission.

The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as lo whether the financial ststemenls present a 'lrue and fair" vtew and the rekx)rt is limited to those matters set out in the ststement below. Independent Examinerfs Stslement In connection with my examination. no matter has come to my attention.. 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 prepare financial ststements which accord with the accounting records and comply the a¢counling requirements of the Act have not been mel,. Of to which, in my opinion. attention should be drawm in order to enable a proper understsnding of the financial slalements to be reached.
