relevant cash and overdraft balances on bank accounts included within each scheme.
The group’s cash at bank included restricted cash of £77m (2010: £54m), of which £59m (2010: £29m) were held in countries in which
prior approval is required to transfer funds abroad. Such liquid funds are at the group’s disposition within a reasonable period of time if it
complies with these requirements. The remaining balance of £18m (2010: £25m) were held in escrow accounts.
Cash and cash equivalents are primarily fixed rate financial assets held for periods ranging from one day to three months.
