The Northern Ireland Schools and Colleges Careers Association (NISCA)
Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of The Northern Ireland Schools and
Colleges Careers Association (INISCA)
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended ) l August 2022 which are set out on pages l O to 16.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not
required for this year under section 65(2) of the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008 (the 2008 Act) 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 do￿1 in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section
65(9){b) of the 2008 Act: and
to state whether particular matter5 have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My 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 conceming 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 'lrne 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"
( l ) 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
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting
requirements of the 2008 Act
have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts
to be reached.
