Directors' Responsibilities
The Directors are required by company law to prepare financial statements for each year that give a true and fair value of the state of affairs of the Company and the Group and of the profit and loss of the Group for that period. The Directors are required to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the Group will continue in business.
The Directors confirm that suitable accounting policies have been used and applied consistently throughout the year. They confirm that reasonable and prudent judgements and estimates have been made in preparing the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2006 and that applicable accounting standards have been followed. The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis.
The Directors are responsible for keeping accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and the Group and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 1985.
They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and the Group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The maintenance and integrity of the Group web site is the responsibility of the Directors. The work carried out by the auditors does not involve consideration of these matters and accordingly the auditors accept no responsibility for any changes that may have been made to the financial statements since they were initially presented.
Litigation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
