that information required to be disclosed by the Trust in this Form N-Q is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the required time periods and that information required to be disclosed by the Trust in the report that it
files or submits on Form N-Q is accumulated and communicated to the Trust’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
|
(b) |
The Trust's principal executive officer and principal financial officer are aware of no changes in the Trust's internal control over financial reporting that occurred
