Share buy back

During 2008 we commenced a new £2.5 billion share buy back programme, which is expected to be completed by 31 March 2009. At 31 March 2008, we had purchased 540 million shares for cash consideration of £1,498 million. During 2007 and 2006 we repurchased 148 million and 166 million shares for cash consideration of £400 million and £348 million, respectively.
