## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER S' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF BELFAST MULTI CULTURAL ASSOCIATION** 

**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023** 

I report on the accounts for the period ended to 31 August 2023 set out on pages nine to sixteen. 

## **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 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 

(the 2011 Act)) and that an independent examination is required. 

It is my responsibility to: 

. Examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Act 

.to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity 

Commission (under Section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act); and 

to state whether particular matters have come to my attention 

## **Basis of the 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 

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 statements 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 

-to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 130 of the 2011 Act; and 

-to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with 

The accounting requirements of the 2011 Act 

2- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper 

understanding of the accounts to be reached.
