Others
The total amount of EUR 0.4 million for other current and non-current provisions includes amounts for tax fees of EUR 0.2 million (2020: EUR 0.1 million) and for other provisions of EUR 0.2 million (2020: EUR 0.2 million) included.
Accounting policies
Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. When the Group expects some or all of a provision to be reimbursed, for example under an insurance contract, the reimbursement is recognized as a separate asset, but only when the reimbursement is virtually certain. The expense relating to a provision is presented in profit or loss net of any reimbursement.
