Material uncertainty over going concern
The Company is in a net current liabilities position and is dependent on the future valuation of investments and the discount rate applied in the actuarial assessment of Trust liabilities. This indicates a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Directors expect investment returns and believe the Company will continue as a going concern for at least 12 months from approval date.
