“Taking into account reasonable possible risks in operations to the Company, the fact the obligations of the Company's sole customer are underwritten by the Secretary of State for Health, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company will be able to settle its liabilities as they fall due to the foreseeable future. It is therefore appropriate to prepare these financial statements on the going concern basis.”

- “Repayment of these borrowings started in September 2016 following the project reaching Global Completion.”
