Other accounting policies
Deferred taxation
The charge for taxation is based on the results for the year and takes into account taxation deferred
because of timing differences between the treatment of certain items for taxation and accounting
purposes. In accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 19, provision is made for deferred tax in
respect of all timing differences that have been originated but not reversed by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax assets are recognised when it is more likely than not that the asset will be recovered.
Deferred tax is measured using rates that have been enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax balances are not discounted.
