HON. SPEAKER OF PARLIAMENT Opinion I have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Makerere University Materials, Product Development and Nanotechnology (MAPRONANO) PROJECT under Makerere University for the year ended 30th June 2018. These financial statements comprise of the statement of Sources and Uses of Funds, and Statement of Funds (BreakDown) and Statement of Reimbursable Eligible Expenditure Programs, notes and accounting policies. In my opinion, the financial statements of the Makerere University Materials, Product Development and Nanotechnology (MAPRONANO) PROJECT for the year ended 30th June 2018 are prepared, in ail material respects, in accordance with Section 51 of the Public Finance Management Act, 2015, and the Financial Reporting Guide, 2018. Basis of Opinion I conducted my audit in accordance with International Standards of Supreme Audit Institutions (ISSAls). My responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statement's section of my report. I am independent of the project in accordance with the Constitution of the Republic of Uganda (1995) as amended, the National Audit Act, 2008, the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (Parts A and B) (IESBA Code), the International Organization of Supreme Audit Institutions (INTOSAI) Code of Ethics and other independence requirements applicable to performing audits of Financial Statements in Uganda. I have fulfilled my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the IESBA Code, and in accordance with other ethical requirements applicable to performing audits in Uganda. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion. Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in my professional judgment, were of most significance in my audit of the financial statements of the current period. I have determined that there are no Key audit matters to communicate in my report. 3 * Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the project's ability to deliver its mandate. If I conclude that a material uncertainty exists, I am required to draw attention in my auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify my opinion. My conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of my auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Makerere University Materials, Product Development and Nanotechnology Project to fail to deliver its mandate. * Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. I communicate with the Accounting Officer regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that I identify during my audit. I also provide the Accounting Officer with a statement that I have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with him/her all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on my independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with the Accounting Officer, I determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. I describe these matters in my auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, I determine that a matter should not be communicated in my report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. Other Reporting Responsibilities In accordance with sections 19(1) of the National Audit Act, 2008, I report to you, based on my work described on the audit of Financial Statements that: Except for the matters raised in the compliance with legislation section below, and whose effect has been considered in forming my opinion on the financial statements; the activities, financial transactions and information reflected in the financial statements that have come to 6 my notice during the audit, are in all material respects, in compliance with the authorities which govern them. 7 AFR[CA CENTRE oF EXELLENCE IN MATERIALS PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT AND NANOTECHNOLOGY (MAPRONANO) MAKERERE UNIVERSITY TABLE OF CONTENTS TA BLE O F CO NTENTS ....................................................TE......... ..............
