Segment analysis            
The segment information has been prepared in accordance with IFRS 8 - Operating Segments (IFRS 8) which defines the requirements for the disclosure of financial information of an entity's operating segments.
IFRS 8 replaces IAS14 - Segment Reporting. The standard requires segmentation based on the group's internal organisation and reporting of revenue and operating income based upon internal accounting presentation.
           
The segment revenues and operating profit generated by each of the Group's reportable segments are summarised as follows:
