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.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014

INDEPENDENT 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 2014 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 21of the loan agreement which requires PASO to ensure its member countries to provide, in a timelymanner, all necessary counterpart funds and in-kind contributions for successful project implementation.

The main reason for PASO not being able to comply with this particular covenant is due to the failure by

some member countries to comply with their treaty obligations 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 theFinance Agreement.

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

currently applicable to PASO.

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

Pacific Aviation Safety Office is a non-profit International Organisation set up under the Pacific Islands

Civil Aviation Safety and Security Treaty and operated for the benefit of member states.

The significant policies which have been adopted in the preparation of these financial statements are:

(a) Statement of compliance

The financial statements of the organisation are drawn up in accordance with International Financial

Reporting Standards (IFRS) adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and

interpretations issued by the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee (IFRIC) of the

IASB and the requirements of the Charities Association (Consolidation) Act [CAP 140].

(b) Basis of preparation

They are prepared on the basis of historical costs and do not take into account changing money values or,

except where stated, current valuations of non-current assets.

The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars (AUD).

The accounting policies are consistently applied and, except where there is a change in accounting policy,are consistent with those of the previous year. There were no changes in accounting policies during the

current financial year.

(c) Revenue recognition

Grant revenue

Grants are recognised in the income statement principally on an accrual basis. Grants that compensate the

organisation for expenses incurred are recognized as revenue in the income statement in the same periods in

which the expenses are incurred.

Service revenue

Income from services are recognized in the income statement upon completion of the service.

(d) Foreign currency

Transactions

Foreign currency transactions are translated to Australian dollars at the rates of exchange ruling at the dates

of the transactions. Amounts receivable and payable in foreign currencies at balance date are translated at

the rates of exchange ruling on that date.

Exchange differences relating to amounts payable and receivable in foreign currencies are brought to

account in the profit and loss account in the financial year in which the exchange rates change.

NOTES TO AND FORMING PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014

Expressed in Australian dollars

(e) Property, plant and equipment (cont.)

Disposal of assets

The gain or loss on disposal of assets is calculated as the difference between the carrying amount of the

assets at the time of disposal and the proceeds on disposal, and is included in the result in the year of

disposal.

Depreciation

Depreciation is charged on a straight line basis and the following rates are used:

* Office furniture 20%* IT and office equipment 20%* Motor vehicles 20%

Assets arc depreciated from the date of acquisition.

(f) Employee entitlements

Wages, salaries and annual leave

The provision for employees' entitlements to wages, salaries and annual leave represents the amount that the

organisation has a present obligation to pay resulting from employees' services provided up to balance date.

The provision has been calculated at nominal amounts based on current wage and salary rates and includes

related on-costs.

Severance allowance

Severance allowance is calculated at the rate of a month's salary for each year of service. It is assumed that

employees will remain in the organisation employment for the period necessary to qualify for the respective

entitlements.

Vanuat National Provident Fund

Contributions to the Vanuatu National Provident Fund are recognized as an expense in the income statement

in the period in which they are incurred.

(g) Receivables

Under the Host State Agreement between the Government of the Republic of Vanuatu and the Organisation,

its assets, income and property, owned or occupied in Vanuatu shall be exempt from all forms of taxation

including Customs duties and Value Added Tax.

(i) Impairment

The carrying amounts of the company's assets are reviewed at each balance sheet date to determine whether

there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset's recoverable amount is

estimated. An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating

unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement.

(j) Comparatives

Where necessary, comparative information has been reclassified to achieve consistency in disclosure with

current financial year amounts and other disclosures.

continuity of normal business activities and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
