PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
We maintain a register of principal risks and uncertainties
covering the strategic, financial, compliance and operational risks
faced by the Group.
We review each risk and rate a number of factors: gross impact,
applying the hypothetical assumption there are no mitigating
controls in place; residual impact and likelihood, taking into
account existing mitigating controls; target impact; the
reputational impact of a risk; and its velocity, which reflects the
expected time we would have to react should a risk materialise.
These, in turn, drive mitigation priorities. A trend metric shows
the net position of the risk year-on-year.
We updated our register of principal risks and uncertainties
following review by the Executive Committee and approval by the
Board. Two risks reported in FY2018 have been merged to form the
integrated supply chain risk. Customer has been added as a new
principal risk.
While we continue to monitor and manage a wider range of risks,
the risk map and the tables that follow summarise those risks
considered to have the greatest potential impact if they were to
materialise.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES
The Directors are responsible for preparing the Annual Report
and the Group and Parent Company financial statements in accordance
with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the Directors to prepare accounts for each
financial year. Under company law the Directors must not approve
the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and
fair view of the state of affairs of the Group and the Company and
of the profit or loss of the Group for that period. In preparing
these accounts, the Directors are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether applicable IFRSs as adopted by the European
Union have been followed for the Group financial statements and
United Kingdom Accounting Standards, comprising FRS 101, have been
followed for the Company financial statements, subject to any
material departures disclosed and explained in the financial
statements; and
- prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is
inappropriate to presume that the Group and the Company will
continue in business.
The Directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting
records that are sufficient to show and explain the Group's and the
Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any
time the financial position of the Group and the Company and enable
them to ensure that the accounts and the Directors' Remuneration
Report comply with the Companies Act 2006 and, as regards the Group
financial statements, Article 4 of the IAS Regulation. They are
also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Group and the
Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention
and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The Directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity
of the Company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom
governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements
may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT
The Directors consider that the Annual Report, taken as a whole,
is fair, balanced and understandable and provides the information
necessary for shareholders to assess the Group's position and
performance, business model and strategy.
Each of the Directors (who are listed on pages 76 to 79)
confirms that to the best of his or her knowledge:
- the Group's financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union and give a
true and fair view of the Group's assets, liabilities and financial
position as at 31 July 2019 and of its profit for the financial
year then ended;
- the Group Directors' Report and Strategic Report include a
fair review of the development and performance of the business and
the position and
- performance of the Group, together with a description of the
principal risks and uncertainties that the Group faces;
- the Company financial statements, which have been prepared in
accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting
Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards, comprising FRS 101
"Reduced Disclosure Framework", and applicable law), give a true
and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and
profit of the Company; and
- as at the date of this report there is no relevant audit
information of which the Company's auditor is unaware. Each
Director has taken all the steps he or she should have taken as a
Director in order to make himself or herself aware of any relevant
audit information and to establish that the Company's auditors are
aware of that information.
