An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financialstatements.

In making those risk assessments, we considerinternal control relevant to the Organisation's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order todesign audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion onthe effectiveness of the entity's internal control.

PACIFIC AVIATION SAFETY OFFICE

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2015INDEPENDENT AUDIT REPORT TO THE MEMBERS

Audit FindingsIn addition to our opinion on the statutory audit, as auditors of PASO we are required to form an opinion for thefollowing items:

(a) Repayment of ADB Loan FundsIn our opinion PASO fully utilised ADB funds for purposes as indicated in the loan agreement, as at 31December 2015 and currently conforms with the repayment schedule.

(b) Compliance with Specific and Financial ADB CovenantsIn our opinion PASO has complied with the Particular Covenants set out in Article IV of the loan agreement.

In our opinion PASO has adhered to the requirements of the Financial Covenants in Schedule 5 paragraphs 13,14, 18 - 20 of the loan agreement, except that PASO has not complied with paragraph 21 of the loan agreementwhich requires PASO to ensure its member countries to provide, in a timely manner, all necessary counterpartfunds and in-kind contributions for successful project implementation. The main reason for PASO not being ableto comply with this particular covenant is due to the failure by some member countries to comply with their treatyobligations with regards to payment of subscriptions and consulting services.

(c) Utilisation of Designated Funds under the WB Grant FundsIn our opinion PASO was compliant with the operation of the Designated Account as indicated in the FinanceAgreement.

(d) Statement of Expenditure ProceduresWe are unable to form an opinion on the Statement of Expenditure (SOE) Procedures as they are not currentlyapplicable to PASO.

(e) Conformity with WB Procurement GuidelinesIn our opinion PASO adhered to the WB Procurement Guidelines.
