APPENDIX C: DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance
with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the
European Union and are based on appropriate accounting policies
consistently applied and supported by reasonable and prudent
judgements and estimates.
The directors are responsible for preparing the annual 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
have prepared the group and parent company financial statements in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards
(IFRSs), as adopted by the European Union. Under company law, the
directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are
satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of
affairs of the group and the company and of the profit or loss of
the company and group for that period. In preparing these 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 IFRSs, as adopted by the European
Union, have been followed, subject to any material departures
disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis,
unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company 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
financial position of the Company and the Group and enable them to
ensure that the financial statements and the Directors'
Remuneration Report comply with the Companies Act 2006 and, as
regards the Group financial 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 financial statements
may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
The directors consider that the Annual Report, taken as a whole,
is fair, balanced and understandable and provides the information
necessary for shareholders to assess the Company's position,
performance, business model and strategy.
The directors confirm that, to the best of their knowledge:
-- the Group financial statements, which have been prepared in
accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the EU, give a true and fair
view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit of
the Group; and
-- the Directors' Report, Risk Management Report (including
Viability Statement), Financial Review and Divisional Reviews
contained in the Annual 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.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a
going concern basis and the directors believe that the Group will
continue to be in operation in the foreseeable future.
The consolidated financial statements set out in the Annual
Report and Financial Statements have been approved by the Board of
Directors and are signed on their behalf by:
