Independent Examiner’s report on the accounts to the Trustees of Bibles for Children I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 30 June 2007, which are set out in the annual report. The accounts are prepared on the accruals basis. Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act),as amended by s.28 of the Charities Act 2006) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to: · examine the accounts (under section 43 of the Act, as amended), · to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 43(7)(b) of the Act, as amended), and · to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. Basis of independent examiner’s statement My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commission. 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 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. Independent examiner's statement In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the trustees have not met the requirements to ensure that: · proper accounting records are kept (in accordance with section 41 of the Act); and · accounts are prepared which agree with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act; or 2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
