- Affirmed
“This agreement (with the Department for Infrastructure) includes a commitment that payment for these services will be maintained at such a level to ensure that as a minimum Translink is able to meet its going concern obligations. This has been a key consideration for the directors in assessing whether the accounts can be prepared on a going concern basis. On this basis, the directors believe that it is reasonable to assume that the Company has and will continue to have adequate resources to meet its anticipated liabilities as they fall due and to enable it to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the Board has concluded that it is appropriate that the accounts are prepared on a going concern basis.”
