The accounting policy for the calculation of headline earnings was changed to   
comply with Circular 7/2002 Headline Earnings, as issued by the South African   
Institute of Chartered Accountants. Comparative figures have been restated and  
headline earnings now include merger costs of the associate. This change had no 
effect on the current reporting period, but the headline earnings of the prior  
year reduces by R21 050 000 (50,1 cents per share).
