Oil started the year at above US $50 per barrel and is today at US $95 per barrel today.Patrice[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8686769.post-41009133377835095462007-11-13T09:54:00.000+01:002007-11-13T09:54:00.000+01:00Jeremy I have not read through the whole thing but I clicked on Communications and unless I am reading it wrong there is a provision in there for N350m for miscelleneous.
