Accounts not prepared on a going-concern basis
The directors believe that the company is no longer a going concern as it is the intention of the directors that the company will be placed under member's voluntary liquidation given that the deregistration of the Uruguay branch has been completed. The financial statements have therefore been prepared on a basis other than going concern.
