Material uncertainty over going concern
Accordingly, the going concern basis of preparation is no longer appropriate as at 30 April 2024. This is because there is a significant likelihood that the company will start a process towards dissolution in the period to 30 September 2025 and, as such, a basis other than that of going concern has been applied in preparing these financial statements.
