sasol limited group  report of the independent auditors

To the members of Sasol Limited

We have audited the consolidated annual financial statements of Sasol Limited set out on pages 102 to 156 for the year ended 25 June 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the directors. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

Scope  We conducted our audit in accordance with statements of South African Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes:
• examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements;
• assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management; and
• evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.


Audit opinion  In our opinion, the consolidated annual financial statements fairly present, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group at 25 June 2001, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Accounting Standards and in the manner required by the South African Companies Act.
