includes a favourable adjustment of 72k to Active Consumer lines and 79k to Group Consumer lines to write back bad debtors previously written off in Q2 2010 and Q3 2010. There is no impact on the 2010 full year figure.
this figure would be c.£120m lower adjusting for the regulated reductions in German MTRs from 1 Dec 2010.
restated for the impact of customer account moves between BT Retail, BT Wholesale, BT Global Services and Openreach effective from 1 April 2011, which have no impact on group results.
