- Affirmed
“The Directors are confident that with the availability of finance from the parent entity and the current cash position, that there is a reasonable expectation that the entity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The parent entity, which itself provides funding to the company, is in part funded in line with the growth of the global recorded music market, which appears to be in a strong position, meaning funding of the Secretariat should not be negatively affected.”
