Responsibilities for the financial statements and the audit

Responsibilities of the directors for the financial statements
As explained more fully in the Directors ’ Report , the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the applicable framework and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view . The directors are also responsible for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement , whether due to fraud or error .
In preparing the financial statements , the directors are responsible for assessing the Company ’ s ability to continue as a going concern , disclosing as applicable , matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations , or have no realistic alternative but to do so .
Auditors ’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement , whether due to fraud or error , and to issue an auditors ’ report that includes our opinion . Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance , but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs ( UK ) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists . Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if , individually or in the aggregate , they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements .
