To the readers of the financial statements of Counties Power Limited Line Business for the year ended 31 March 2000.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Counties Power Limited Line Business. The financial statements provide information about the past financial performance of Counties Power Limited Line Business and its financial position as at 31 March 2000. This information is stated in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the Statement of Accounting Policies.

Directors’ responsibilities

The Electricity (Information Disclosure) Regulations 1999 require the Directors to prepare financial statements which give a true and fair view of the financial position of Counties Power Limited Line Business as at 31 March 2000, and results of operations and cash flows for the year then ended.

Auditors’ responsibilities

It is the responsibility of the Audit Office to express an independent opinion on the financial statements presented by the Directors and report its opinion to you.

The Controller and Auditor-General has appointed A S Wotton of PricewaterhouseCoopers to undertake the audit.

Basis of opinion

An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. It also includes assessing:

  • the significant estimates and judgements made by the Directors in the preparation of the financial statements; and

  • whether the accounting policies are appropriate to Counties Power Limited Line Business circumstances, consistently applied and adequately disclosed.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, including the Auditing Standards issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of New Zealand. We planned and performed our audit so as to obtain all the information and explanations which we considered necessary in order to provide us with sufficient evidence to obtain reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatements, whether caused by fraud or error. In forming our opinion, we also evaluated the overall adequacy of the presentation of information in the financial statements.
