Appendix
Directors' responsibility statement
The Directors are responsible for preparing the Annual Report
and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and
regulations. Company law requires the Directors to prepare
financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the
Directors are required to prepare the Group financial statements in
accordance with United Kingdom adopted International Financial
Reporting Standards ('IFRSs'), and have elected to prepare the
Company financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom
Generally Accepted Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards
and applicable law) including FRS 101 Reduced Disclosure
Framework.
Under company law the Directors must not approve the Annual
Report and financial statements unless they are satisfied that they
give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company
and of the profit or loss of the Company for the year.
In preparing the parent company financial statements, the
Directors are required to:
-- Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-- Make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-- State whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been
followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and
explained in the financial statements; and
-- Prepare the financial statements on the Going Concern basis
unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will
continue in business.
In preparing the Group financial statements, International
Accounting Standard 1 requires that Directors:
-- Properly select and apply accounting policies;
-- Present information, including accounting policies, in a
manner that provides relevant, reliable, comparable and
understandable information;
-- Provide additional disclosures when compliance with the
specific requirements in IFRSs are insufficient to enable users to
understand the impact of particular transactions, other events and
conditions on the entity's financial position and financial
performance; and
-- Make an assessment of the Company's ability to continue as a Going Concern.
The Directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting
records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's
transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the
financial position of the Company and enable them to ensure that
the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006.
They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the
Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention
and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The Directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity
of the corporate and financial information included on the
Company's website. Legislation in the UK governing the preparation
and dissemination of financial statements may differ from
legislation in other jurisdictions.
Each of the Directors confirm that to the best of their
knowledge:
-- The financial statements, prepared in accordance with the
relevant financial reporting framework, give a true and fair view
of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss
of the Company and the undertakings included in the consolidation
taken as a whole;
-- The Strategic Report includes a fair review of the
development and performance of the business and the position of the
Company and the undertakings included in the consolidations taken
as a whole, together with a description of the principal risks and
uncertainties that they face; and
-- The Annual Report and financial statements, taken as a whole,
are fair, balanced and understandable and provide the information
necessary for shareholders to assess the Company's position and
performance, business model and strategy.
