AUDITOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financialstatements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud orerror, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance isa high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordancewith SAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements canarise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate,they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken onthe basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with SAs, we exercise professional judgment andmaintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive tothose risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide
a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resultingfrom fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involvecollusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override ofinternal control. .
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to designaudit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. Under section 143(3)
(i) of the Act, we are also responsible for expressing our opinion on whether thecompany has adequate internal financial controls with reference to financialstatements in place and the operating effectiveness of such controls.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonablenessof accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basisof accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a materialuncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubton the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that amaterial uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor'sreport to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosuresare inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the auditevidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future eventsor conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financialstatements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statementsrepresent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fairpresentation.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters,the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including anysignificant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have compliedwith relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate withthem all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on ourindependence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determinethose matters that were of most significance in the audit of the Financial Statements ofthe current year and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters inour auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matteror when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not becommunicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so wouldreasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
