Even when an organLSation operates in the most stable of environments where future income streams and expenditure requirements can be identified there will remain an element of uncertainty as to the absolute timing of each individual transaction and also the possibility that unforeseen expenses and liabilities will emerge. Against this background it is considered good practice to seek to build some financial reserves which will allow us to meet future commitments or unforeseen expenses without a negative impact on our ability to deliver our servlces or develop our business in the manner planned.

REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF NEWRY & MOURNE COMMUNITY TRANSPORT Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from mateiial misstatement. whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditorfs report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, Lncluding fraud ￿ detailed below. Enquire of management, those charged with governance around the actual and potential litigation and claims; Enquire of entity Staff and CoMpl￿nce functions to identify any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations,. Reviewing financiaL statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations; Performing audit work over the risk of management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of buSLness and reviewing accounting estimates for bias,. Enquire of any results from internal audit procedures for any indications of non-compliance. As part of an audit in accordance with ISAS (UK), we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We atso: Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omLSSLons, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Obtsin an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the companls internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Board of Directors. Conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our Auditorfs Report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our Auditor's Report. However, future events or conditions may cause the company to cease to continue as a going concern.
