|
| Directors' responsibilities |
| The directors are responsible for preparing the report and accounts in accordance with applicable law and regulations. |
|
| Company law requires the directors to prepare accounts for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the accounts 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. In preparing these accounts, the directors are required to: |
| ● |
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; |
| ● |
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; |
| ● |
prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. |
|
| The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. |
|
| Small company provisions |
| This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions in Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime. |
|
| This report was approved by the board on 25 November 2015 and signed on its behalf. |
