This includes: - where the racecourse is unable to hold a race meeting due to the weather conditions it will endeavour to reschedule the race meeting to a later date. - The impact of COVID-19 and the continued disruption to the racing calendar including racing behind closed doors impacting the company's ability to generate revenue. The company has considered the risks and is in a position to respond quickly to changes in economic conditions to ensure its business objectives are achieved. Auditors In accordance with Section 383 (2) of the Companies Act 2014 and section 13 (2) of the Horse and Greyhound Racing Act 2001, the Comptroller and Auditor General will continue as auditor of the company.
