Accrued charges and deferred income include £19 million (2008: £2 million) in respect of interest payable.

There is no material difference between the above amounts for trade and other payables and their fair value, due to the short-term duration of the majority of trade and other payables.

Trade and other payables are predominantly denominated in the functional currencies of subsidiary undertakings with less than 5 per cent (2008: 5 per cent) in other currencies.
