2010-11 | £283,000 | Zero |
2011-12 | Zero | Zero |

By way of comparison, in 2009-10 a total of £2.352million was paid out in bonuses.
Note 1 – The majority of this bonus payment of £1.199million relates to the payment in April 2013 of the first tranche of a Long Term Incentive Plan award for the period covering the three financial years to end March 2012.
