The Annual Report incorporates the Directors’ Report and financial statements.

Company law requires the directors to prepare accounts for each financial year that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and of the profit and loss for that year. In preparing those accounts, the directors are required to:

• Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
• Make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
• State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the accounts; and
• Prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the company will continue in business.

The Directors are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and to enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 1985. They have general responsibility for taking such steps as are reasonably open to them to safeguard the assets of the company and to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities.
