The following disclosures are made by the Board of Directors:
-
(a) that the Directors are responsible for preparing the Directors' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations and in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. -
(b) that company law requires the Directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. -
(c) that in preparing the financial statements the Directors are required to: (i) select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; (ii) make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; (iii) prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. -

(e) that the Directors are responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities; and -
(f) that, where appropriate, the Directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the company's website. It is important to bear in mind that legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
