Governance: Weakness in accounting records / failure to retain supporting documentation
“During the course of my examination I noted that the charity did not retain invoices, receipts, or equivalent supporting documentation for a significant number of transactions. Because of this limitation, I was unable to verify a substantial proportion of the charity’s transactions against independent supporting documentation. This represents a weakness in the charity’s accounting records. Accordingly, matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which give me cause to believe that, in material respects, adequate accounting records were not maintained in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act 2011.”
