To the fu]lest extent pcrniittcd by law, I do not acccpt or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and thc Charity's Trustees &s a body, for my examinatio￿ for this repo¢ or for thc opinions I have fornicd. Respective resposibilities of Trusttts and Examiner The Charitys Trustccs are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with thc tern￿ of the Charities and Trustce Investment ( Scotland ) Act 2005 and thc Charities Accounts ( Scodand ) Regulations 2006. Th¢ Charity's Truslces consider that thc Audit rcquircmcnt of Regulation l O( l ) (d) of thc Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is my respo￿8]blIty to examine th¢ Accounts as rquired 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 I l 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 unusua] items or disclosures in the Accounts, and seeks explanations from thc Trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not providc all the evidence that would be required in an audil and consequendy I do not cxpress an Audit opinion on thc view given by the Accounts. Independent Examiner's Ststement In the course of my examination , no mattcr h&s come to my attention: which gives me reasonable cause ts) believe thal in any material respect the rcquiremcnts .
