Do I need to disclose the comparatives in a related party note if they are not related?

Do I need to disclose the comparatives in a...

Didn't find your answer?

I have a new client, who has a related party disclosure in their audited accounts last year.  However, I don't think that the party was in fact related in this year or last year, and therefore don't want to disclose the current year transactions - so my question is whether it is correct to leave it out altogether, given that the comparative figures were disclosed last year?  If not, what should be disclosed?

Thanks

Comparative figures

... are just that - comparisons with this year's figures.  If you are not disclosing any figures this year, why on earth would you disclose figures for last year in this year's accounts?

Good question!  I could not see a reason why it would be necessary, but I wanted to check I was not missing anything.

Thanks
