1Depreciation, which forms part of resource DEL, is excluded from the total DEL, since capital DEL includes capital spending and to include depreciation of those assets would lead to double counting.

Changes in Accounting Policies
Prior Period Adjustments
Cost of capital charges
Costs of capital charges (CCC) have been removed from accounts, budgets and Supply Estimates in accordance with HM Treasury’s Consolidated Budgeting Guidance (CBG). However the Department had liabilities greater than its assets so attracted a cost of capital credit. The removal of the CCC increases resources in DEL. The Prior Period Adjustment (PPA) in respect of the previous two years is:
| 2008-09 | 2009-10 | |
|---|---|---|
| Cost of capital credit (£’000): | 2,698,533 | 2,774,776 |
