REPORT OF INDEPENDENT
REGISTERED PUBLIC
ACCOUNTING FIRM



Board of Directors
Sprott Focus Trust, Inc.
Toronto, Ontario, Canada


In planning and performing our audits of
the financial statements of Sprott Focus
Trust, Inc. ("Fund") as of and for the
year ended December 31, 2015, in
accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States), we considered
their internal control over financial
reporting, including control activities for
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-SAR, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Fund's internal
control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such
opinion.

The management of the Fund 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 company'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
generally accepted accounting
principles.   A company'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
company; (2) provide reasonable
assurance that transactions are recorded
as necessary to permit preparation of
financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting
principles, and that receipts and
expenditures of the company are being
made only in accordance with
authorizations of management and
directors of the company; and (3)
provide reasonable assurance regarding
prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use or
disposition of a company's assets that
could have a material effect on the
financial statements.

Because of 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
combination of deficiencies, in internal
control over financial reporting, such
that there is a reasonable possibility that
a material misstatement of the
company's annual or interim financial
statements will not be prevented or
detected on a timely basis.






Board of Directors
Sprott Focus Trust, Inc.
Page Two





Our consideration of the Fund'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 Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States).
However, we noted no deficiencies in
the Trust's internal control over
financial reporting and its operation,
including controls for safeguarding
securities, which we consider to be
material weaknesses, as defined above,
as of December 31, 2015.

This report is intended solely for the
information and use of management,
and the Board of Directors of Sprott
Focus Trust, Inc. and the Securities and
Exchange Commission, and is not
intended to be and should not be used by
anyone other than these specified
parties.
