Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of The Bogside Artists (charity number NIC107040) on the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2023

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(3) of the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008 and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to

• examine the accounts under section 65 of the 2008 Act,

• to follow the procedures laid down in general directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 65 of the 2008 Act), and

• to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiner’s statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with 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 the 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 my examination, no matter has come to my attention

1. Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:

2. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 63 of the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008; and

3. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2008 Act

4. have not been met; or

5. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
