These UK Regulations enact domestic rules in line with Directive 2013/34/EU
(the EU Accounting Directive (2013)) and apply to companies that are involved in extractive activities.
This report is also intended to satisfy the requirements of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority in the United Kingdom.
Basis for preparation
Reporting entities
This report includes payments to governments made by subsidiaries in the Group which are engaged in extractive activities. During the 2017 financial reporting period, extractive activities were conducted in Lesotho and Botswana.
Extractive activities
Extractive activities relate to the exploration, prospection, discovery, development and extraction of minerals, oil, natural gas deposits or other materials. Gem Diamonds Limited, through its subsidiaries, is engaged in diamond mining activities.
Scope of payments
The report discloses only those significant payments made to governments arising from extractive activities.
Government
Government includes any national, regional or local authority of a country. It includes a department, agency or undertaking (i.e. corporation) controlled by that authority.
Payment types disclosed at legal entity level

Taxes
These are payments on the entity's income, production or profits, excluding taxes levied on consumption such as value added taxes, personal income taxes or sales taxes in line with in-country legislation.
Royalties
These are payments for the right to extract diamonds and are determined on percentage of sales in terms of in-country legislation and / or mining lease agreements.
