Independent examinerfs report
Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of "BRIPPA"
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31" Dec 2025 which are set out on
pages I to 5.
Res
ectlve res
onsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charlty's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with
the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment Iscotlandl Act 2005 and the Charities
Accounts Iscotlandl Regulations 2006. The charity trustees consider that the audit
requirement of Regulation 10111 Idl of the Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is mv
responsibility to examine the accounts as required under section 44111 Icl of the Act and to
state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of inde
endent examlnerfs statement
My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charltles Accounts
(Scotlandl Regulatlons 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 disclosures in the accounts, and 5eek5 explanations from
the trustee5 concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the
evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit
opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Inde
endent examinerfs Statement
In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
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 Regulation5, 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.
