The figures for 2006 have been restated for the impact of FRS 20, Share-based payments. It has not proved practicable to restate earlier years. Net current assets and shareholders' funds for the years 2002 to 2005 have been restated to reflect the change in accounting policy for proposed dividends which are now not recognised until approval at the Annual General Meeting.
