Notes to the Financial Statements

Year ended 31 March 2021

1. General information

The company is a private company limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is Former BSC Power Station, Thomlinson Road, Hartlepool, TS25 1NS.

2. Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with Section 1A of FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland'.

3. Accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through profit or loss.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.

Going concern

The company has the support of its immediate parent company which will allow it to meet its obligations for the foreseeable future.

Landfill remediation costs

The company has a liability to make good, monitor and maintain its landfill site for a period of approximately 60 years. Provision is made for the estimated costs of capping and making good the landfill site and for the future post-closure costs of maintaining the site.

Disclosure exemptions

The entity satisfies the criteria of being a qualifying entity as defined in FRS 102. Its financial statements are consolidated into the financial statements of Niramax Holdings Limited which can be obtained from Companies House. As such, advantage has been taken of the following disclosure exemptions available under paragraph 1.12 of FRS 102: No cash flow statement has been presented for the company.

Provisions

Provisions are uncertain in timing or amount, and are recognised when there is a present obligation as a result of a past event and the outflow of economic benefit is probable and can be estimated reliably. Judgement is involved in determining whether an obligation exists, and in estimating the probability, timing and amount of any outflows.

Provisions for legal proceedings and regulatory matters typically require a higher degree of judgement than other types of provisions. When matters of dispute are at an early stage, accounting judgements can be difficult because of the high degree of uncertainty associated with determining whether a present obligation exists as a result of a past event, estimating the probability of outflows and making estimates of the amount of any outflows that may arise. Management evaluate on an ongoing basis whether provisions should be recognised as well as their estimated amounts as matters progress through many stages of development, revising previous judgements and estimates as appropriate.

At more advanced stages, it is typically possible to make judgements and estimates around a better-defined set of possible outcomes, however, such judgements can be very difficult and the amount of any provision can be very sensitive to the assumptions used. There could be a wide range of possible outcomes for any pending legal proceedings, investigations or enquiries. As a result, it is often not practicable to quantify a range of possible outcomes for individual matters. Quantifying ranges of potential outcomes for these types of provisions is also not practicable because of the diverse nature and circumstances of such matters and the wide range of uncertainties involved.

Tangible assets

All fixed assets are recorded at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is not charged on freehold land.

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:

	Freehold property	-	Already depreciated to nil

Impairment of fixed assets

A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date. For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the company are assigned to those units.

4. Particulars of employees

The average number of persons employed by the company during the year amounted to 2 (2020: 2 ).

The company had no staff costs but has two directors in the year.

5. Taxation on ordinary activities

Reconciliation of tax income

The tax assessed on the (loss)/profit on ordinary activities for the year is higher than (2020: lower than) the standard rate of corporation tax in the UK of 19 % (2020: 19 %).

The directors are of the opinion that the fair value of the land held by the company is nil due to its former use as a landfill site and the inability to sell the tangible fixed asset.

11. Reserves

Profit and loss account - This reserve records retained earnings and accumulated losses.

12. Contingent liabilities

The directors have used an independent environmental consultant to value the remaining post-closure remediation obligations of the site. The independent valuation was £288,306 at March 2021. This valuation has not been agreed with the external regulator which has indicated a remediation obligation in excess of the company's provision. Following the independent valuation, the directors are of the opinion that the bond held along with the provision made to 31 March 2021 is sufficient to meet any future remediation obligations.

13. Summary audit opinion

The auditor's report for the year dated 30 September 2021 was unqualified .

The senior statutory auditor was Graeme Boagey BA FCA CTA , for and on behalf of Chipchase Manners .
