13 Other Statutory Information
(a) Before the financial statements of the Group and of the Company were made out, the directors took reasonable steps:-
(i) to ascertain that proper action had been taken in relation to the writing-off of bad debts and the making of provision for
doubtful debts and satisfied themselves that all known bad debts had been written-off and that adequate provision had been
made for doubtful debts; and
(ii) to ensure that any current assets which were unlikely to realize their book value in the ordinary course of business were written
down to an amount which they might be expected so to realize.
(b) At the date of this report, the directors are not aware of any circumstances which would render:-
(i) the amount written-off for bad debts or the amount of the provision for doubtful debts inadequate to any substantial extent;
and
(ii) the values attributed to current assets misleading.
(c) At the date of this report, the directors are not aware of any circumstances not otherwise dealt with in the report or financial
statements which would render any amount stated in the financial statements of the Group and of the Company misleading.
