STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES

The directors are responsible for preparing the Report of the Directors and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements 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 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. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:

-	select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

-	make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

-	prepare the financial statements 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 financial statements 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.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:

Stella Kerena Bingham - Director

Basis of preparing the financial statements

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The financial statements are also prepared in accordance with the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales ("ICAEW") Technical Release "Tech 03/11" and taking account of subsequent legal counsel's opinion obtained separately by both ICAEW and the Financial Reporting Council in determining whether a management company acts as principal when contracting with third party suppliers to the property's service charge.

Service charges receivable

Service charges receivable comprises the reimbursement of service charge expenditure deployed by the management company on behalf of the service charge fund for Moscow Mansions.

Recognition of income

Service charges receivable is recognised in the financial statements concurrently with the recognition of the service charge expenditure that is being funded.

Depreciation

No depreciation has been provided on the reversionary freehold interest as the directors are of the view that's its value will not diminish. The directors consider that this accounting policy, which is a departure from the requirements of the Companies Act concerning depreciation of fixed assets, is therefore necessary to provide a true and fair view.

4.	OPERATING PROFIT

The directors received no remuneration in respect of their services to the company for the year.

The company owns the reversionary freehold interest in Moscow Mansions which was purchased for £1 consideration. In the directors' opinion the property does not qualify as an Investment Property as defined by the provisions of Section 16 of FRS102 as the property is held for administrative purposes and as no rentals are being earned. Therefore the property is held on the balance sheet at £1, being the cost to the company of the freehold interest.
