In terms of our borrowing to our wholly owned subsidiaries, Our statement of accounts (note 30) show the position of these loans. The loans are at base plus 5% - the rate is therefore variable depending on base rate. The repayment is based on the 30-year business plan and linked to the company cash flow and profitability.
