| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |

| Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty |
| In the application of the Company's accounting policies, the Directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. |
| The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. |
| Critical judgements in applying the Company's accounting policies |
| The following are the critical judgements, apart from those involving estimations (which are dealt with separately below), that the Directors have made in the process of applying the Company's accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in these financial statements. |
| Impairment of equity investments |
| Determining whether the Company's equity investments have been impaired requires estimations of the investments in accordance with FRS 102 section 27. No indicators have been noted by the Company. The carrying amount of the equity investments at the balance sheet date was £1,275,243 (2023:£330,689) with no impairment loss recognised in the current or prior financial period. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Financial instruments |
| The Company accounts for financial instruments as basic, in accordance with the recognition criteria in Section 11 of FRS 102. |
| Financial instruments are recognised in the company's balance sheet when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. |
| Financial assets and liabilities are offset , with the net amounts presented in the financial statements , where there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to·settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. |
| Basic financial assets |
| Basic financial assets, which include debtors, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised. |
| Basic financial liabilities |
| Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other payables, are initially recognised at transaction price, unless the arrangement constituted a financing transaction. In this case, the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar instrument. Basic financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. |
| Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. |
| Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. |
| Classification of financial liabilities |
| Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the company after deducting all of its liabilities. |
| Taxation |
| Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
| Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
| Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. |

| 2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
| Deferred tax |
| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date. |
| Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
| Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |
| Going concern |
| The Company is dependent on the support from its shareholder to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis because there are no material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. |
| The director has considered the cash flow forecasts for both the Company and its investments, taking into account the current market conditions. This demonstrates that the Company should be able to continue to operate over the next 12 month period from the date of approval of these financial statements, as the level of operating expenses is not expected to change significantly from current levels. |
| Consequently, the director has a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least 12 months from the date of approval of.these financial statements. Accordingly, the Company has adopted the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. |
| Equity investments |
| Equity investments include investment in associate and equity investments of the Company and are all stated at acquisition cost less impairment losses, if any. |
| Where a Company has power to participate in (but not control) the financial and operating policy decisions of another entity it is classified as an associate. Profits and losses arising on transactions between the Company and its associate are recognised only to the extent of unrelated investors' interests in the associate. The investors' share in the associate's profits and losses resulting from these transactions is eliminated against the carrying value of the associate. |
| Investments are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. |
| Turnover |
| Distributions received are initially treated as a return of contributed capital, in line with the wording of distribution notices and the Limited Partnership Agreement of the fund making the distributions. Once all committed contributions have been returned to the Company, any further distributions received are treated as revenue. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received. |
| 3. | EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS |
| The average number of employees during the year was NIL (2023 - NIL). |
