            5.    Events after the reporting period

            The Covid-19 pandemic which has engulfed the world during March and April 2020 has had a negative impact on the global

            business environment. The executive board have in response to the national lockdown imposed by the government

            implemented an extensive contingency plan whereby the majority of staff members could continue to perform their duties from
            home thereby ensuring the organisations' ability to generate revenue remains intact. The organisation has no long term debt

            and has adequate working capital to sustain its operations for atleast four months on the assumption that the accounts

            receivable billed to date will be honoured by customers. The executive board are of the opinion that the majority of the
            organisations' customer base will have the ability to honour their commitments.


            Consequently, the executive board is confident that the Covid-19 pandemic will not have an adverse effect on the financial
            results as reflected in these financial statements.
