For details of ICI’s employee share option schemes and other share-based plans refer to note 7 relating to the Group accounts.

The Company has applied the requirement of FRS 20 Share-based payment and has elected not to adopt the exemption to apply FRS 20 only to awards made after 7 November 2002, instead a full retrospective approach has been followed on all grants not fully vested at the date of transition in order to maintain consistency across the reporting periods.

The fair value of awards granted is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, refer to note 7 relating to the Group accounts for the fair value assumptions used.
