Our approach to identifying and assessing th¢ risks of material tni58tatement in respect of iffegularities.
including fraud and nonwcornpliance with laws and regulations. was as follows:
the ¢ngogernent partner ensured thi( the engagement tmn coll￿tiVelY had the approprtale
mpet¢D¢4 Capabilities and skills to id¢ntify or reco￿lse nonacompliance with applicable laws
r¢gulations'
we identified the laws and regulations applicabl¢ to th¢ ¢omp8ny through discussions with directors
dlor senior manag¢ment, and from our commerci81 knowledge and experience of the sector;
We focused on specific laws and resulations which we consid¢red may have a direct material ¢ffect on the
financial 5tat¢m¢nls or the operations of th¢ company, including Companies Act 2006. taxation legislation.
dala protection, anti-bribery. employment, environmental and health ind safety l¢gi$lation
we Asse59e41 the extent of complionce with the laws and r¢8ulationJ id¢ntifi¢d abov¢ throu8h making
¢nquiries of manag¢ment and inspe¢ting legal eorresymdet￿e. and
identified laws and re8ulation5 wer¢ communicRled within the audit team regularly and the tean)
remaincd alert to instan￿5 Of non4ompliance Ihroughoul the audiL
We assessed the susceptibility of the company's financial stat•tnents to Tnatsrial misstatement, in¢ludin8
obtaining an Underst￿Ing of how fraud might 0￿Ur. by:
making enquiries of rnanagemenl as to where they consid¢r¢d there WAS susceptibiliry to fraud. their
knowledge of actual. SU3￿Cled and all¢sed fraud. and
considering th¢ internal controls in pl￿¥ to miti8at¢ risks of frwd and non-¢ornplian¢e with laws and
regul&tion8;
To address the risk of fraud through rnanagernent bias and override of controls, we:
performed analytical procedures to identify any un￿gua1 or UneXp￿ted rel*ionships;
tested joumal entri¢9 to identify unusu841 transactiong;
a&sessd whether jud8em¢nts and assurnptions made in determining the accounting estimates set out
in Note 2 were indicative of potential bi&s-
investigated the r&tionale bchind significant or unusual transaetions;
In response to the risk of ir￿gU1&rittes ond n￿-COmplI￿nce with laws and re8ulations, we designed procedureg
which included, but were not limited to:
a￿Ing financial statement disclosures to undeTlying 5UPPOrting docum¢ntation;
reading the minutes of meetings of those ch￿sed with governance:
¢nquiring of managemenl as to actual and potential litigation and ¢laim4 and
reviewing corr¢5pondence with HMRC and the LS)mpany's legal advisors:
There are inherent lirnitations in our audit procedures described abov¢. The more removed that laws and
regulotion$ Are from financial tTanSACtions. the less likely it is thot we would b¢¢ome aware ofnonrfomplianee,
Audtling ￿andardS also limit the audit pro¢edur¢s required to identify non4ompliantt with laws and
regulations to enquiry of th¢ directors and other mDna8ement and the iftspe¢tion of rtBvlatory and legal
CorreSp￿den￿, if afty.
Material fflisststements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that artse from em)r as they
may involve deliberate concealment or ¢ollusion.
