We conducted our audit in accordance with the International Standards of Supreme Audit
Institutions (ISSAIs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We
are independent of the agency in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to
our audit of the financial statements, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in
accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is
sufficient and appropriate to provide bases for our qualified opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Except for the matter described in the Bases for Qualified Opinion section, we have
determined that there are no other key audit matters to communicate in our Report.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial
Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial
statements in accordance with International Public Sector Accounting Standards, and for
such internal control as Management determines necessary to enable the preparation of
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Municipality of
Valencia’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a
whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error and to issue an
auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance
but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISSAIs will always detect a
material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are
considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to
influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
