| Taxation |
| 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. |

| As a result of the magnitude of the losses made in previous years, the director believes that it is not prudent to account for deferred tax assets nor necessary to account for deferred tax liabilities within these financial statements. |

| The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The company relies upon the continued support from its ultimate parent company, Damac Capital Limited, who have confirmed provision of such support. The directors are confident that the company will be provided with the necessary financial support so that the company will continue in operational existence realising its assets and meetings its liabilities as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the date of the approval of these financial statements. Accordingly, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. |
