Going concern

Affirmed

“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on British Refugee Council's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events

• “This year also saw a new government come into power, bringing some wins for refugees. The Labour Government immediately scrapped the Rwanda plan and committed to processing all asylum cases through the official system. They also ended the use of the Bibby Stockholm and extended family reunion rights for Afghan refugees.”
• “Rwanda: abolished the costly and controversial Rwanda scheme.”
• “Decision-making: restarted processing asylum claims to cut the backlog.”
• “Bibby Stockholm: stopped the use of the Bibby Stockholm barge for housing people in the asylum system.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
