in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), we considered the Trust's
internal control over financial reporting, including controls over
safeguarding securities, as a basis for designing our auditing
procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the
financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form
N-CEN, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Trust's internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
The management of the Trust is responsible for establishing and
maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting.
In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by
management are required to assess the expected benefits and related
costs of controls. A trust's internal control over financial
reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation
of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. A trust's internal
control over financial reporting includes those policies and
procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that,
in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and dispositions of the assets of the trust; (2)
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles,
and that receipts and expenditures of the trust are being made
only in accordance with authorizations of management and trustees
of the trust; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding
prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use
or disposition of a trust's assets that could have a material
effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial
reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections
of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to
the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in
conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or
procedures may deteriorate.
A deficiency in internal control over financial reporting exists
when the design or operation of a control does not allow management
or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned
functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of
deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such
that there is a reasonable possibility that a material
misstatement of the Trust's annual or interim financial statements
will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Our consideration of the Trust's internal control over financial
reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first
paragraph and would not necessarily disclose all deficiencies in
internal control that might be material weaknesses under standards
established by the PCAOB. However, we noted no deficiencies in the
Trust's internal control over financial reporting and its operation,
including controls over safeguarding securities, that we consider
to be a material weakness as defined above as of April 30, 2023.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of
management and the Board of Trustees of the Trust and the
Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be
and should not be used by anyone other than these specified
parties.
