6          Share-based payment 
 
During the prior period the Group's subsidiary, Impetus Automotive Limited,
issued shares to certain management of that business.  An independent
valuation of the shares issued was undertaken and the share-based payment
charge reflects that valuation.  The issue of shares in Impetus resulted in an
increase in non-controlling interests, which are set out in note 7.

The non-controlling interests of £1.54 million relate to the net assets
attributable to the shares not held by the Group at 30 June 2017 in the
following subsidiary undertakings:

the cancellation of certain management shares during the second half of 2016. 
 
8          Purchase of own shares
