The charity’s trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulations 10 (1)(d) of the Accounts Regulations does not apply.

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 seeking explanations from you as 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 view given by the accounts. ## **Independent examiner’s statement** - I have completed my examination. I can confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any internal respect: 1. Accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by Section 44 (1)(a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) or 2. The accounts do not accord with those records or 3. The accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Regulation 8 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
