Review Engagement Report
To the Members of Gwa'Sala-'Nakwaxda'xw Nation:
We have reviewed the consolidated schedule of remuneration and expenses paid to elected officials of the Gwa'Sala-'Nakwaxda'xw Nation for the year ended March 31, 2015. Our review was made in accordance with Canadian generally accepted standards for review engagements and accordingly consisted primarily of enquiry, analytical procedures and discussion related to information supplied to us by management. A review does not constitute an audit and, consequently, we do not express an audit opinion on this consolidated schedule of remuneration and expenses paid to elected officials. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that this schedule of remuneration and expenses paid to elected officials is not, in all material respects, in accordance with the First Nation’s Financial Transparency Act.
