What the accounts disclose

Governance: The document states Caroline Hargrove was appointed as independent examiner, but later notes she stepped down because a PCC member cannot act as independent examiner, and Sarah Altman was appointed as independent auditor. This indicates a governance clarification/compliance issue regarding the appointment of the examiner/auditor.
No member of the PCC can act as independent examiner and Caroline Hargrove stepped down as soon as this was clarified with the diocese. The PCC subsequently appointed Sarah Altman as independent auditor and are grateful to her for carrying out the work this year. — page 17
