INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF
NORTHERN IRELAND CHILDRENS KIDNEY FUND
I report on the accounts of the Fund for the year ended 31 March 2024 which are set out on pages 3 to 6.
RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES AND THE EXAMINER
The Fund’s Trustees are responsible for the prepara�on of the accounts. The Fund’s Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under sec�on 144(2) of the Chari�es’ Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examina�on is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
Examine the accounts under sec�on 145 of the 2011 Act
-
To follow the procedures laid down in the general direc�ons given by the Charity Commission under sec�on 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
To state whether par�cular maters have come to my aten�on
BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT
My examina�on was carried out in accordance with the general direc�ons given by the Charity Commission. An examina�on includes a review of the accoun�ng records kept by the Fund and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes considera�on of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explana�ons from you as Trustees concerning such maters. 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 maters set out in the statement below.
INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT
In connec�on with my examina�on, no mater has come to my aten�on:
-
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: - to keep accoun�ng records in accordance with sec�on 130 of the 2011 Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accoun�ng records and comply with the accoun�ng requirements of the 2011 Act
have not been met; or
- (2) to which, in my opinion, aten�on should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
