The properties provision relates primarily to London offices which the Group vacated in autumn 2010 as part of a planned relocation to a new building in Islington and comprises:


• net rental costs of vacant offices and shops until they are reasonably expected to be sublet or otherwise disposed of; • dilapidation costs of offices and shops where the planned exit from the property has been confirmed before the year-end date; and


• obsolete fixtures, fittings and equipment which will be written off once the buildings have been vacated.


The research and other provisions relate to costs arising from operational changes and insurance for third party claims against the Group. 22. Provision for pension liability
