The trustees are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the Annual report and financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report. we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the Annual report and financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other infonnation is materially inconsistent with the Annual report and financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the Annual report and financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed. we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Matters on whlch we are required to report by exception In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit. we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees, report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: the infomiation given in the trustees, report is inconsistent in any material respect with the Annual report and financial statements; or adequate accounting records have not been kept., or the Annual report and financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit, Responslbilities of trustees As explained more fully in the trustees, responsibilities statement, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the Annual report and financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of Annual report and financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

THE CHURCH OF GOD AT GLENMACHAN INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE CHURCH OF GOD AT GLENMACHAN (contlnued) YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024 Audltor's responsiblllties for the audit of the annual report and flnancial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Annual report and financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's 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 economlc decisions of users taken on the basis of these Annual report and 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, including fraud is detailed below.. We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the Company through enquiry of management, industry research and the application of cumulative audit knowledge. We identified the following principal laws and regulations relevant to the Company Companies Act 2006 and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). We developed an understanding of the key fraud risks to the entity (including how fraud might occur), the controls in place to help mitigate those risks, and the accounts, balances and disclosures within the financial statements which may be susceptible to management bias. Our understanding was obtained throu9h review of the financial statements for significant accounting estimates, analysis of joumal entries, walkthrough of the key control cycles in place and enquiry of management. As part of an audit in accordance with ISAS (UK), we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Annual report and financial ststements, 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 for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Obtain 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 internal control. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the trustees. Conclude on the appropriateness of the Iru5tees' 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 charity's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the Annual report and financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtsined up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the charity to cease to continue as a going concern.
