This excerpt taken from the ICI 6-K filed Mar 21, 2007.
(h) Disposal adjustments
In 2000, the Group recorded the disposal of its Chlor-Chemicals business as a discontinued operation. Under US GAAP Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) Topic 5E, due principally to the continuing 15% equity interest of the Group in the disposed operations and a commitment by the Group to provide additional funding to finance the Ineos Chlor business, the entity could not be deconsolidated. In October 2004, Ineos agreed to take over ICI’s outstanding funding commitment to the Ineos Group of £55m. As a result, ICI wrote-off all existing indebtedness from Ineos Chlor and transferred its 15% equity interest to Ineos. A charge of £5m was incurred in the IFRS results for this transaction. Under US GAAP, the results of the operation of Ineos Chlor up to the date of disposal and the loss on disposal of £5m are included within continuing operations in 2004.
