The primary function of the Annual Statement is to enable an independent examination or audit of accounts to be carried out as required by Standing Orders 012(2) and (3) and 913(2).
This statement mainly reinforces information which the Treasurer maintains locally and reliance on these local records is essential. We ask that the details within this statement are checked as quickly as possible after distribution in order to confirm accuracy. Any discrepancies need to be reported by Friday 22nd September 2023 for adjustment, as we cannot change details after we have completed the year end closedown.
Please note that a sample of Circuits will receive enquiries from our external auditors as part of the verification process.
