## **Year ended 31 March 2023** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Saint Mary’s PS, Portaferry, Parent Support Group ('the charity') for the year ended 31 March 2023. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the trustees of the charity, you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008 (‘the Act’). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the charity are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements as carried out under section 65 of the Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed the general Directions given by the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland under section 65(9)(b) of the Act. 

My examination included a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also included consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you are charity trustees concerning any such matter. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with my examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 63 of the Charities Act; 

2. the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

3. the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act; 

4. there is further information needed for a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. 

I confirm that there are no other matters to which your attention should be drawn to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached, and I have found no matters that require drawing to your attention.
