Independent Examiners report to the members of Dadswork on the accounts of the charity for the yoar ended 31st March 2022 I report on the accnunts for the year ended 31 March 2022, which are set out on pages 6t010. ective Res nsibiliti of the Mana em mm nd Examiner The charity's Management Committee are ￿spOnSible for the preparation of the a(xxJunts in accordance with the temis of the Charities and Trustees Investment (Scotland) 2005 Act and the Charities Acn)unts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. The Charity trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1) (a) to (c) of the Accounts Regulation does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under section 44(1) (c) of the Act and to state whether partbcular matters have come to my attention. Exami My examination is carried rxrt in accordance with Regulats'on 11 of the CharÉties Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the ac￿+untS presented with those records. It 81so includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeks explanations from the Management Committee conceming any such matters. The pr(Kedures undert8ken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and, consequently. I do not express an audrt opinion on the accounts. In In In the course of my examina1K￿, no matter has come to my attention. 1. which gives me reas(￿able cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: to keep accounts'ng records in acn)rdance ￿￿th secb'on 44{1) (a) of the 2005 Act and Regulats'on 4 of the 2006 A￿OUnts regulations. and to prepare aco)unts which accord wth the accounting records and comply wth Regulation 8 of the 2006 Accnunts Regulation 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. Dale: LJ/iz124JiL
