                          YEAR-END CONVERGENCE UPDATE


In September 2004, we announced that we had decided to align UK and
international accounting periods for the 2005/06 year at a new year-end in April
2006.

We have now decided to adopt a simpler approach by aligning the international
year-end with the existing Group year-end at the end of February.
