site known as Bond Street, Chelmsford, Essex. Aquila EHS Limited owns the reversionary freehold interest. |
DIRECTORS |
The directors shown below have held office during the whole of the period from 1 January 2014 to the date of |
this report. |
COMPANY STATUS |
Waterloo Lane Management Company Limited is a company limited by guarantee under the Companies Act |
1985. Therefore the company has no share capital. |
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 surplus or deficit 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 special provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act |
2006 relating to small companies. |
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD: |

notes from the company's accounting records and from information and explanations you have given us. |
As a practising member firm of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW), we are subject to its ethical and other professional requirements which are detailed at icaew.com/membershandbook. |

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and its Board of Directors, as a body, for our work or for this report. |
It is your duty to ensure that Waterloo Lane Management Company Limited has kept adequate accounting records and to prepare statutory financial statements that give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit of Waterloo Lane Management Company Limited. You consider that Waterloo Lane Management Company Limited is exempt from the statutory audit requirement for the year. |
We have not been instructed to carry out an audit or a review of the financial statements of Waterloo Lane |
Management Company Limited. For this reason, we have not verified the accuracy or completeness of the |
accounting records or information and explanations you have given to us and we do not, therefore, express |
any opinion on the statutory financial statements. |

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014 |
1. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Accounting convention |
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for |
Smaller Entities (effective April 2008) and draft FRC Abstract 1 (Residential Management Companies' |
Financial Statements). |
Turnover |
Turnover comprises service charges receivable from the tenants of Bond Street, Chelmsford, Essex. |
Service charges receivable are recognised as income in the financial statements concurrently with the |
recognition of the service charge expenditure that is being funded. |
2. | OPERATING SURPLUS |
The directors received no remuneration in respect of their services to the company for the year. |
3. | TAXATION |
No liability to UK corporation tax arose on ordinary activities for the year ended 31 December 2014, nor |
for the year ended 31 December 2013. |
4. | PRIOR YEAR ADJUSTMENT |
The financial statements for year ended 31 December 2013 were prepared on the basis that the |
company was dormant, rather than operating on a non-profit basis. Furthermore draft FRC Abstract 1 |
(Residential Management Companies' Financial Statements) was not adopted in the preparation of |
those financial statements. |
In these financial statements Draft FRC Abstract 1 (Residential Management Companies' Financial |
Statements) has been adopted and the accounting policies have been amended to include as turnover |
the ground rents and service charges receivable, with the corresponding outgoings also reflected. The |
balance sheet includes all of the company's own assets and liabilities. |
The comparative figures have been re-stated on a consistent basis. |
