Respective responsibilities of the council and the auditor
The council is responsible for ensuring that its financial management is adequate and effective and
that it has a sound system of internal control. The council prepares an annual return in accordance
with proper practices which:

¢ summarises the accounting records for the year ended 31 March 2012; and

¢ confirms and provides assurance on those matters that are important to our audit responsibilities.

Our responsibility is to conduct an audit in accordance with guidance issued by the Audit Commission
and, on the basis of our review of the annual return and supporting information, to report whether any
matters that come to our attention give cause for concern that relevant legislation and regulatory
requirements have not been met.

External auditor's report
On the basis of our review, in our opinion the information in the annual return is in accordance with proper
and
practices and no matters have come to our attention giving cause for concern that relevant legislation
regulatory requirements have not been met.

Other matters not affecting our opinion which we draw to the attention of the council:

The Annual Return and supporting information were not submitted for audit by the date requested.
The Council should formally review and approve the risk assessment annually.

The work of the internal auditor should cover all relevant boxes in Section 4 or an explanation should be
provided for areas not covered (Boxes F, G and H), in accordance with the guidance in the Annual Return.

The Council must ensure it takes appropriate action to address the matters raised by the internal auditor in
her detailed report.
