Independent examinerf5 report
Independent Examinerfs Report to the Trustees of "BRIPPA"
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31st Dec 2023 which are set out on
pages I to 5.
Res
ectlve res
onslbilitles of trustee5 and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with
the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotlandl Act 2005 and the Charities
Accounts Iscotlandl Regulations 2006. The charity trustees consider that the audit
requirement of Regulation 10111 Idl of the Accounts Regulatlons does not apply. It is my
responsibility to examine the accounts as required under section 4411) Icl of the Act and to
state whether particular matters have come to my attention,
Basis of inde
endent examinews statement
My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the charities Accounts
Iscotlandl Regulations 2006. 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 disc105ures in the accounts, and seeks explanations from
the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the
evidence that would be requlred in an audit. and consequently I do not express an audit
opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Inde
endent examlner's statement
In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attentlon..
l. Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
To keep accounting records in accordance with Section 4411) lal of the 2005 Act and
Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations, and
To prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation
9 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations
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.
