The increase in non-current employee related provisions since 31 March 2014 is mainly due to the increase in the post-retirement medical aid provisions as a result of medical inflation. The decrease in non-current non-employee related provisions is as a result of certain provisions becoming payable in the next 12 months and therefore being moved to short term. | |||
The increase in the current portion of employee related provisions is due to the voluntary severance, voluntary early retirement and retrenchment process. The decrease in the current portion of non-employee related provisions is the reclassification at 30 September 2014 of an amount of R304 million to trade and other receivables to more accurately reflect the substance of a transaction with a third party. |
