The main increases in Other provisions for liabilities and charges were caused by the changes in the Ferrovial Group’s scope of consolidation (see Note 1.2 on Scope of consolidation). The impact is described below: In the item “Provisions for liabilities”, due to the inclusion of the BAA Group (140,970 thousand euro) and of Gesmat (Empresa Mixta de Gestión Medioambiental de Toledo), acquired by the Cespa Group (1,075 thousand euro). In the Services Division, the Swissport Group’s provision for liabilities also increased (25,026 thousand euro) due to the review of the price allocation process in accordance with IFRS 3, during the year following the acquisition of this shareholding.
