“After making enquiries, the Directors are therefore satisfied that the Company has adequate resources to continue in business for at least the next 12 months and therefore it is appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these financial statements. The Directors have concluded that there are no material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt upon the Company's ability to continue to apply the going concern basis of accounting.”
