City of Londonderry Charitable Trust
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Report to the trustees of City of Londonderry Trust on the financial statements for the year ended 5th April 2025 set out on pages 7 to 14.
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 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 65 of the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 65(9)(b) of the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008), 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 for Northern Ireland. An examinaton 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 next statement.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination no matter has come to my attention
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements: - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 63 of the Charities Act 2008; and section 44(1)(a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act 2008 and section 44 (1) (b) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 8 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations have not been met; or
-
to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
