at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial
statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of

other irregularities.

- the Management Committee have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of
any relevant inforn]ation and to establish that the independent examinei is aware of that infornvdtion.
