I.             ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
 
The principal accounting policies applied are summarised below. 
 
Basis of preparation 
 
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost
convention as modified by the revaluation of Tangible Assets and in accordance
with Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard
applicable in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies
Act 2006. 
 
FRS 102 is mandatory for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January
2015. 
 
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires
the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management
to exercise judgment in applying the company's accounting policies (see note 2
in the Group financial statements). 
 
These accounts do not include a Cashflow Statement or a Financial Instruments
note as these are disclosed in the Group financial statements. 
 
All accounting policies that are not unique to the company are listed on pages
19 -21. All additional accounting policies have been applied as follows: 
 
Going concern 
 
The Directors' are of the opinion that the Company has sufficient working
capital for the foreseeable future and on this basis, consider it appropriate
that the accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis. 
 
Valuation of investments 
 
Investments held as fixed assets are stated at cost less any provision for
impairment in value. 
 
II.            LOSS FOR THE FINANCIAL PERIOD 
 
The Company has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under s408 of the
Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own profit and loss account in
these financial statements.  The Company's loss for the year was £671,000
(2016: Loss of £2,206,000). 
 
The average number of employees of the company during the year was 8 (2016: 4)
and total staff costs were £1,209,000 (2016: £603,000).
