REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
TO THE MEMBERS OF OSJ PRIORY OF SCOTLAND TRUST
(Registered Charity No. SC038784)
Respective responsibilities of Trustees 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 (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. The Charity’s Trustees consider that the audit requirement of regulation 10 (1) (d) (a) of the Accounts Regulations 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 particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s statement
My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) 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 disclosures in the accounts and seeks explanation from the Trustees concerning 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 opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Independent examiner’s statement
In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention —
-
Ly Which gives me cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
-
To keep accounting records in accordance with section 44 (a) (a) of the Charitable and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations
-
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
