furniture have not been included in the financial statements as at 30 June 2008. Furthermore the assets at the various sites are impaired. Due to the potential significance of the assets, we are uncertain of the values ascribed to the assets not recognised in the Financial Statements and any resultant depreciation that may impact on the operating result. Letter of Credit Analysis of movement of letter of credit account balance during the year under review was not made available to the auditors for review. The account balance moved from TZS 775,872,275 as on 1 July 2007 to TZS 250,251,054 as at 30 June 2008. We are therefore uncertain whether payments from this account were solely made for the Corporation’s activities.
