Material uncertainty over going concern
The Company's financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis... This indicates, therefore, an uncertainty as to whether the parent Company will be able to provide the support required by the Company and, as a result, the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
