In past years other gains (losses) were presented within operating and maintenance expense in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, however; due to the significance and nature of asset disposals during 2014, they have been presented separately within the consolidated financial statements. The Corporation has also changed the consolidated statement of cash flows to present proceeds on disposals and decommissioning costs separately rather than netting the amounts against each other. Comparative amounts have been reclassified for consistency.
