Independent Euminer'$ Report to the Trwstees of St Paul's Church of Scotland:
Provanmill, Glasgow
I report on the accounts of the ¢harity for the year ended 31 DKember 2025 whith set on pages
6tolO.
Rupecilve respotisibilities of trustees iAdepemdeal examlmer
The charity's tn￿ee5 are r&siKMlSible for the preparation of the a¢￿￿nts ID a¢wrdanc¢ with the tems
of the Ch8Tities and Trust¢¢ Inv¢stnwnt (sc(rtIw￿) Act 2(K)S and the Charities Accounts {Scotland)
ReguJation$ 2006 (as arn￿￿).
The ¢harity trustees ￿nSider that the audit requirement of R¢gulation 10(1) (d) of the Accounts
Re8ulations th)es not apply. It is my Yesp)nsibility to examine the a￿OUnts as required under ￿tiOn
44(1) (c) of th¢ A¢t and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
B¥i• of iodepeDde•t e￿Miner.8 Itstell￿¢
My examination is carried c￿1 in accordance with Regulation I l of the Ch8rities Accounts (Scotland)
Regulations 2006 (as amermled). An ¢xamination includes a review of the a¢￿Unting re￿rdS kept by
charity and a Comparis￿ of th¢ accounts presented with those records. It also includes
consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accowit& and seeks explanations from the
trustees coneerning any such matter5. The w(Kaures Undert￿en do not Provide all th¢ evid￿¢¢ that
would ￿ required in an audil and ¢onsequenily I do not expTf&4 an audit opinion on th¢ vi¢w given by
Independent t￿mIller's st*teme•l
In the coutse of my examination. no matter has ¢oJne to my attention
whiGh giv¢5 me reasonable cause to I￿lieVe that io any material T¢StKrt the trquirements:
. to keep accounting ￿COrdS in accordance with Section 44(1) (a) of the 2005 Art and Regulation 4
of the 2006 Accounts Regulations (&s amcnded). and
. to prepaff a¢¢ounts which &cord with the ￿)Unting record5 and comply with Re8ulation 9 of the
2006 Accounts Regulations (as amend¢d) have i￿) meL or
to which, in my opinion. attenlion should b¢ dTawn in order to enable a PTQPH und¢rstanding of
the ￿COUnts to be T￿hed.
