Outlook Subject to receipt of tax clearance from HMRC, the Company is contracted to invest £4,000,000 in ten newly formed windfarm investment companies, each intended to own and operate one wind turbine. An investment of £400,000 in each Company will be made by way of subscription for shares and variable rate unsecured loan notes. The Company is co-investing alongside Keydata Income VCT 2 plc on the same terms. Each windfarm is at a different stage of development with planning permission granted and construction dates currently targeted from August 2006. Tax clearance was still outstanding on the date of approval of these accounts. With total funds available for investment of £6.9 million, we anticipate being fully invested within the next 12 months.
