Staff costs amounting to £1.2 million (30 June 2015: £1.0 million, 31 December 2015: £1.9 million) have been capitalised as
development costs and are excluded from Table 6. Our business model for developments is to use a combination of in-house
staff and external advisers. The cost of external advisers is capitalised to the cost of developments. The cost of staff
working on developments is generally expensed, but is capitalised subject to meeting certain criteria related to the degree
of time spent on and the stage of progress of specific projects.

PREMIUM OUTLETS
The Group's investment in premium outlets is through interests in Value Retail and VIA Outlets. Due to the nature of the
Group's control over these externally managed investments, Value Retail is accounted for as an associate and VIA Outlets as
a joint venture. Tables 9 and 10 provide analysis of the impact of the two premium outlet investments on the Group's
financial statements. Further information on Value Retail is provided in note 10 to the accounts on pages 37 to 39 and for
VIA Outlets in note 9 to the accounts on pages 35 to 37.
