Appendix
Statement of Directors' Responsibilities
The following responsibility statement is repeated here solely
for the purpose of complying with DGTR 6.3.5. This statement
relates to and is extracted from page 110 of the 2017 Annual Report
and Accounts. Responsibility is for the full 2017 Annual Report and
Accounts and not the extracted information presented in this
announcement and the Final Results Announcement.
Statement of Directors' responsibilities in respect of the
Annual Report and the Financial Statements
The Directors are responsible for preparing the Annual Report,
the Directors' Remuneration Report and the nancial statements in
accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the Directors to prepare nancial statements
for each nancial year. Under that law the Directors have prepared
the Group Financial Statements in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European
Union, and have prepared the Parent Company Financial Statements in
accordance with United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom
Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law.
Under company law the Directors must not approve the nancial
statements unless they are satis ed that they give a true and fair
view of the state of affairs of the Group and the Company and of
the pro t or loss of the Group for that period.
In preparing these nancial statements, the Directors are
required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether IFRS as adopted by the European Union and
applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to
any material departures disclosed and explained in the Group and
Parent Company Financial Statements respectively; and
- prepare nancial statements on the going concern basis unless
it is inappropriate to presume that the Group will continue in
business.
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
nancial position of the Company and the Group and to enable them to
ensure that the nancial statements and the Directors' Remuneration
Report comply with the Companies Act 2006 and, as regards the Group
nancial statements, Article 4 of the IAS Regulation. 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 Directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity
of the Company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom
governing the preparation and dissemination of nancial statements
may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
Directors' responsibility statement
Each of the Directors, whose names and functions are listed on
pages 78 to 81 con rm that, to the best of each person's
knowledge:
a. the Group nancial statements, which have been prepared in
accordance with IFRS's as adopted by the European Union, give a
true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, nancial position and
pro t of the Group;
b. the Strategic Report, together with the Directors' report,
includes a fair review of the development and performance of the
business and the position of the Group, together with a description
of the principal risks and uncertainties that it faces, including
those that would threaten its business model, future performance,
solvency or liquidity; and
c. the Annual Report, taken as a whole, is fair, balanced and
understandable and provides the information necessary for
shareholders to assess the Company's nancial performance and
position, business model and strategy.
