Conclusions
relating to going concern
In auditing
Ihe knsncial statements,
we have concluded that the directors' use ofthe going concern basis ofaccounting
in the
preparation
ofthe financial statements
is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed,
we have not idenkfied
any material
uncertainties
relating to events or conditions
that,
individually
or collectively,
may cast significant
doubt on ths company's
ability to continue as
s going concern fora period ofst least
twelve months
from when the financial

sre authorised

financial statements
does not cover the other information
and we do not express any form of

conclusion thereon.
Our responsibility
is to read the other information
and, in doing so, consider whether the other information
