We design procedures in line with our responsibilitie& outlin¢d above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting iTregulaTi¢ies, including fraud is detailed below: We design procedures in line with our re$pon$ibilitie& outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of I￿¢gularitIcs, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detccting irre8ularities, including fraud is detsiled below: - Enquiry of managemen( and those charged with governanrx, around actual and potential litigation and - Enquiry of cntity staff in t&x and complianc£ functions to identify any instances of nonwC4)rnpliaD¢e with laws and re8ulatAons' - Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance. - Rcviewing financial stat¢ment dI￿lOSUre8 and tssting to supporting do¢um¢ntation to a&s¢ss compliance with applicable laws and regulations. - Performing audit work over the risk of management ovcnidc of contro15, including testing ofjournal entries and other adjustments for appropriatenes4 evaluatingthe business rationale of signifi¢antlrnnsa¢tions outside thc norn)al course of business and Teviewing a¢￿untIng ¢stinMks for bias. Because ofthe inherent limitations ofan audit, there is a rAsk that we will not detect all ]￿egularItieS including those l¢ading to a material misstatement in the fmancial statements or non-compliance with regulation, This risk increases the fillther that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions ieflecled in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of nonvcompliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than em)r. as fraud involves intentional ¢oncealmenL forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
