and a comparison of the &counts presented wilh those records. It also indudes
consideration ol any unusual ilems or disclosures in the accounts, and seeks explanalions
from the Irusl8es concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide
all the evidence that W(￿1￿ be required in an audrt. and ￿nSeqUentlY I do not express an
audit opinion on the view givèn by tho accounts.
