The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in
accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland)
Respective 2005 Act and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. The charity
responsibilities of trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1) (d) of the
trustees and examiner 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.
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
Basis of independent presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual
examiner’s statement items or disclosures in the accounts and seeks explanations from the trustees
concerning any 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 audit opinion on the accounts.
In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention, other
than discosed below
1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the
requirements:
Independent • to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply
examiner’s statement with Regulation 9 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations
• to keep accounting records in accordance with section 44(1) (a) of the 2005
Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations, and have not been met
2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a
proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
