  Material uncertainty over going concern

  We draw attention to Note 2.2 in the financial statements, which indicates that the company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the timely sale of certain assets of the Directors. These assets are fundamental to generating the necessary cash flows to enable the company to meet its obligations as they fall due over the next 12 months from the reporting date. As stated in Note 2.2, the timing and outcome of these sales are uncertain and, therefore, a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern.
