2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued |
Deferred taxation |
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. |
|
Foreign currencies |
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of transaction. Exchange differences are taken into account in arriving at the operating result. |

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. |

11. | COVID-19 |
|
In keeping with many businesses globally, the company's trading activity has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. However this affect on the company's trade has been less than originally feared and the company has been in receipt of a Government and Local Authority Grant which, together with the strength of its accumulated reserves, have provided the support which has enabled the company to continue its trading activities throughout the period of these Financial Statements. The company has delivered a strong financial performance during the first half of the current financial year and in the opinion of the Director, will continue to do so for the remainder of the current financial year and for the foreseeable future. |
