  Options are valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. All options have a life of three years. The expected volatility used in the valuation model is based on historical volatility over the last three years of a peer group and a nil dividend yield has been assumed. The principal assumptions and key data used   
  in the calculations are shown below.

  Notes to the Company Balance Sheet                                                                                                   
                                                                                                                                       
  1 Principal accounting policies                                                                                                      
  1.1 Basis of accounting                                                                                                              
  The Company's Financial Statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with applicable UK      
  accounting standards and the Companies Act 1985. The Company has not presented its own profit and loss account, in accordance with   
  the exceptions allowed by Section 230(4) of the Companies Act 1985. The loss for the year is £6.5m (2008: £18.3m)                    
  1.2 Intangible assets                                                                                                                
  Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Amortisation is charged to the profit and  
  loss account on a straight-line basis over the useful economic lives of the assets concerned, from the date they are brought into    
  operational use.Computer software and licenses are the only intangible assets held by the Company at 31 March 2009. They have an     
  estimated life of 3 to 5 years. Software development costs are only capitalised where they are considered to generate future         
  economic benefit.                                                                                                                    
  1.3 Investments                                                                                                                      
  Investments are stated at cost less provision for any impairment in value.                                                           
  1.4 Provisions                                                                                                                       
  Provisions are recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event and when it  
  is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are measured at the Directors' best   
  estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date, and are discounted to present value.        
  1.5 Share-based payments                                                                                                             
  The Company operates equity-settled share-based payment schemes for certain employees. The cost of share-based payments is measured  
  at fair value at the date of grant, excluding the effect of non market-based vesting conditions. The cost is recognised in the       
  profit and loss account on a straight-line basis over the vesting year with the corresponding amount credited to equity, based on an 
  estimate of the number of shares that will eventually vest. The fair value of employee share option plans is calculated by using the 
  Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model.                                                                                                
                                                                                                                                       
  For share-based payments to employees of subsidiary undertakings the charge is reflected in the accounts of the subsidiary entities  
  to which the benefit relates. The charge is reflected in the cost of investment the parent company holds in its subsidiary.          
  1.6 Current taxation                                                                                                                 
  The tax currently payable is based on the taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the     
  profit and loss account because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further  
  excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates and laws    
  that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.                                                           
  1.7 Deferred taxation                                                                                                                
  Full provision has been made for deferred taxation in respect of timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the     
  balance sheet date as the result of an event which results in an obligation to pay more or less tax in the future, except that:      
                                                                                                                                       
  -                                                                                                                                    
  Provision is made for gains on disposal of assets that have been rolled over into replacement assets only where there is a           
  commitment to dispose of the replacement assets.                                                                                     
  -                                                                                                                                    
  Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is more likely than not that there will be suitable taxable profits from    
  which the future reversal of the underlying timing differences can be deducted.                                                      
                                                                                                                                       
  Deferred tax is measured on a non-discounted basis at the tax rates expected to apply in the period in which the timing differences  
  reverse, based on tax rates enacted at the balance sheet date.                                                                       
  2 Auditors' remuneration                                                                                                             
  The auditors' remuneration for audit services to the Parent Company for the year ended 31 March 2009 was £0.1m (2008: £0.1m).

  The average number of employees in the year, including Executive Directors, was 81 (2008: 111).

  Provisions represent the best estimate of obligations at the balance sheet date. The provision for onerous lease commitments has been calculated at the net present   
  value of rent payable less rents receivable (having taken account of potential void years and lease incentives) up to the end of the lease. Allowance has been made   
  for empty rates and agents' fees. The restructuring provision relates to the costs associated with the ongoing operational restructuring.
