Report of the Independent Auditors
to the Trustees of Legal Resources Foundation
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Legal Resources Foundation, which comprise the
Statement of Financial Position as at 30 June 2014, and the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive
Income, Statement of Changes in Equity and the Statement of Cash Flows for the year then ended and the Notes
to the Financial Statements, which include a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory
notes as set out in pages 38 to 55.
Management’s responsibility for the financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance
with International Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is
necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether
due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted
our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply
with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of
the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those
risk assessments, the auditor considers internal controls relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation
of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but
not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal controls. An audit also
includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates made by the trustees, as well as evaluation of the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a reasonable basis
for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements presents fairly, in all material respects the financial position of Legal
Resources Foundation at 30 June 2014, and its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended,
in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.
Report on other legal and regulatory requirements
In our opinion, the financial statements have, in all material respects, been properly prepared in compliance
with the disclosure requirements of the Private Voluntary Organisations Act.
