“For these reasons the Directors consider the Company a going concern for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these Financial Statements, and have adopted the going concern basis in preparing the Financial Statements. In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”
