31st MARCH 2003


INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF HOSPICE CARE KENYA

This report on the accounts of the Trustees for the year ended 31st March 2003, which are set out on pages 2 to 5, is in respect of an examination carried out under s.43 of the Charities Act 1993.

RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER

As Trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts; you consider that the audit requirement of section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act) does not apply.

It is our responsibility to issue this report on those accounts in accordance with the terms of Regulation 7 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 1995.

BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT

Our examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 43(7)(b) of the Act.  That examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Trustees and a comparison of the accounts with those records. It also includes considering any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters.  The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently we do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT

In connection with our examination, no matter has come to our attention:

  1. which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in any material respects the requirements
    have not been met; or
  2. to which, in our opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
