INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT
TO THE MEMBERS OF PAKISTAN OILFIELDS LIMITED
REVIEW REPORT ON THE STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE CONTAINED IN LISTED COMPANIES
(CODE OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE) REGULATIONS, 2019
We have reviewed the enclosed Statement of Compliance with the Listed Companies (Code of Corporate
Governance) Regulations, 2019 (the Regulations) prepared by the Board of Directors of Pakistan Oilfields
Limited (the Company) for the year ended June 30, 2021 in accordance with the requirements of regulation 36
of the Regulations.
The responsibility for compliance with the Regulations is that of the Board of Directors of the Company.
Our responsibility is to review whether the Statement of Compliance reflects the status of the Company’s
compliance with the provisions of the Regulations and report if it does not and to highlight any non-compliance
with the requirements of the Regulations. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of the Company’s personnel
and review of various documents prepared by the Company to comply with the Regulations.
As a part of our audit of the financial statements we are required to obtain an understanding of the accounting
and internal control systems sufficient to plan the audit and develop an effective audit approach. We are not
required to consider whether the Board of Directors’ statement on internal control covers all risks and controls
or to form an opinion on the effectiveness of such internal controls, the Company’s corporate governance
procedures and risks.
The Regulations require the Company to place before the Audit Committee, and upon recommendation
of the Audit Committee, place before the Board of Directors for their review and approval, its related party
transactions. We are only required and have ensured compliance of this requirement to the extent of the
approval of the related party transactions by the Board of Directors upon recommendation of the Audit
Committee.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention which causes us to believe that the Statement of
Compliance does not appropriately reflect the Company's compliance, in all material respects, with the
requirements contained in the Regulations as applicable to the Company for the year ended June 30, 2021.
Further, we highlight content of paragraph 1 of the statement where the matter of representation of female
director on the Board of Directors of the Company has been explained.
