 15.   Provisions for liabilities and charges cont'd 
 

Property related provisions

The Group recognises a provision for onerous contracts when the expected benefits to be derived from a contract are less than the unavoidable costs of meeting the obligations under the contract. Provision is made for the future rental cost of vacant property. In calculating the provision required, account is taken of the duration of the lease and any recovery of cost achievable from subletting. Property provisions occur principally in the USA and UK and relate to a variety of lease commitments. The longest relevant lease terms for each country are to 2016 and 2017 respectively.

Litigation provisions

At any point in time the Group can be involved in a variety of litigation issues. A provision is established in respect of such issues when it is probable that the liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The Group analyses its litigation exposures based on available information, including external legal consultation where appropriate, to assess its potential liability. Where appropriate the Group also provides for the cost of defending or initiating such matters.

Where a litigation provision has been made it is stated gross of any third party recovery. All such recoveries are included as "other receivables" within trade and other receivables. At 31st December 2012, in connection with certain litigation matters, the Group's litigation provisions include an amount of GBP0.1 million (2011: GBP0.1 million) to reflect this gross basis and the corresponding insurance recovery has been included within trade and other receivables. This presentation has had no effect on the Consolidated income statement for the year ended 31st December 2012 (2011: nil).

Other

Other provisions include provisions for clawback of commission which arises on certain types of Employee Benefit contracts.
