ULSTER PAEDIATRIC SOCIETY
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF ULSTER PAEDIATRIC SOCIETY
We report on the accounts for the year ended 31st August 2018 which are set out on pages 3 to 6.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 65(2) of the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008 (as amended) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is our responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 65(3) of the 2008 Act;
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 65(9)(b) of the 2008 Act; and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to our attention
Basis of independent examiner’s report
Our examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with our examination, no matter has come to our attention:
-
which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the following requirements have not been met:
-
i. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 63 of the 2008 Act; and,
-
ii. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2008 Act; or
-
to which, in our opinion, further information is needed to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
