B2515 of Independent Exxminer's Statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with the 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 pres¢nted with those
records. It also includes considerntion of any unusual items or disclosures in the
accounts. seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters.
The procedures undertaken do noi provide all the evidence that would be required in
an audit, and consequently, I do not expr¢ss an audit opinion on the view given by the
acc()unts.
