21 Pensions
The Company accounts for pensions in accordance with IAS 19, “Employee Benefits.”
The Company operates defined-benefit and defined-contribution schemes.
Defined-benefit schemes
The Company funds the pension entitlements of certain employees through defined-benefit plans. Two
plans are operated for eligible Irish and UK employees. In general, on retirement, a member is entitled to a
pension calculated at 1 / 60th of the final pensionable salary for each year of pensionable service, subject to a
maximum of 40 years. These plans are fully funded on a discontinuance basis and the related pension costs and
liabilities are assessed in accordance with the advice of a professionally qualified actuary. The investments of
the plans at March 31, 2009 consisted of units held in independently administered funds. The most recent full
actuarial valuations of the plans were carried out at June 30, 2007 in accordance with local regulatory
requirements using the projected unit credit method, and the valuation reports are not available for public
inspection.
