| Notes |
| • |
A new purchasing process has been introduced
into the UK Norwich Union Central Services function. The
system now identifies only the supplier with whom we have
live contracts, this in conjunction with the rationalisation
of suppliers through the merger of the legacy companies
has caused the change in the number of suppliers recorded. |
| • |
The amount of 'purchasing for customers'
suppliers has been rationalised with the merger of the
legacy companies |
| • |
*Loss adjusters and motor repairers
have not been contacted about their environmental impact,
however environmental policy clauses have been incorporated
into all their new contracts. These account for 598 of
the Norwich Union Insurance Purchasing for Customers suppliers
(86%). |
| • |
The no. of suppliers making improvements
has not been measured this year as in 2000 this figure
consisted of suppliers who were involved in the Acorn
Project. |

| Notes |
| • |
The CO2
tonnes for electricity were calculated incorrectly
last year, and as such they have been restated by
adding an additional 9,231 tonnes to the 2000 figure
and are now accurate* |
| • |
The new electricity contract
came into effect in October 2001 providing 19% of
our electricity from renewable sources, which means
that 5.4 GWh had zero carbon emissions. |
| • |
The rationalisation of our computer
centres has reduced our electricity consumption
by 8.4 GWh per annum. |
| • |
Electricity data is measured
for all businesses, expect for Your Move which is
extrapolated |
| • |
Gas consumption data is measured
for 2001, where previously it was extrapolated and
estimated. |
| • |
Gas consumption has also reduced
due to catering facilities being scaled down or
closed in line with the business needs. |
| • |
Water usage is estimated. |
| • |
The CO2 conversion factor for
electricity varies from country to country due to
the energy source used in generation. These conversion
factors can be viewed at the UNEP website -

| Notes |

The UK vehicle fleet is made
up of 4,663 vehicles - of which 4,048 vehicles run
on unleaded petrol, 562 run on diesel and 3 run
on LPG. These figures do not include details of
car drivers who have taken cash option. |
| • |
2000 car fleet kms were a combination
of extrapolated and estimated data, as the legacy
Norwich Union had no previous data. The 2001 data
is more accurate than 2000, which is a combination
of actual and extrapolated. The accuracy of this
data will improve again for next year. The data
also includes 3 million kms from Hill House Hammond,
which was not previously reported. |
| • |
The conversion factor to CO2
varies for car kms travelled depending on whether
the vehicles use unleaded, diesel and LPG fuels.
These conversion factors can be viewed at the UNEP
website -
http://www.uneptie.org/energy/act/ef/GHGin/index.htm
|
| • |
Air travel has reduced over the
year, predominantly in respect of travel in Europe. |
| • |
The conversion factor for air
travel kms varies depending on whether the journey
is longhaul (an average distance of 6,495 km) or
shorthaul (an average distance of 500 km). These
conversion factors can be viewed at the UNEP website-
http://www.uneptie.org/energy/act/ef/GHGin/index.htm
|
| • |
Rail travel has increased over
the year and is estimated and extrapolated. |

| Notes |
| • |
During 2001, the waste contracts
in the UK were rationalised and in 2002 waste segregated
in respect of all paper, plastic cups and cardboard
will be introduced in all locations which house
more than 200 staff, where a system is not already
in place - this will cover approximately 70% of
staff in the UK. A target has been set of reducing
the amount of general waste going to landfill by
10% on 2001 data. |
| • |
The volume of waste paper has
reduced. In 2000 the higher figure was partly due
to the scrapping of redundant documents and publications
due to the merger. |
| • |
Data for cardboard, glass, batteries
and aluminium cans has not been reported for this
year in respect of the main businesses, but extrapolated
figures will be available next year through the
implementation of the waste strategy. |
| • |
The volume of plastic cups has
increased due to the legacy Norwich locations moving
to 'free vend'. |
| • |
With the new catering contract
the caterers are responsible for disposal of waste
oils etc. |
| • |
Toner cartridges used by the
Life operations are remanufactured. Toner cartridges
from Your Move are not reported, but are collected
and donated to charity for reconditioning and re-sale. |
| • |
17.2% of the furniture disposed
of is recycled |
| • |
Group office also produce 129
tonnes of general waste of which 32.2 tonnes was
recycled. |
| • |
Paper recycling in Your Move
is currently limited to head office sites. |
| • |
Data for plastic cups and toner
cartridges is gathered from purchasing information. |
