Note a - It is not possible to analyse cost award receivables by amounts falling due within one year and amounts falling due after one year. Her Majesty's Courts Service retain the accounting records for uncollected cost awards. Those records are not analysed between amounts falling due within one year and amounts falling due after one year.

Note b - Included within other receivables is £Nil (2008-09: £12k) representing unexpected receipts due to the Consolidated Fund once the debts are collected.
