Legal claims

The total amount of EUR 1.0 million for other current and non-current provisions includes amounts for tax fees of EUR 0.1 million (2022: EUR 0.1 million) and for other provisions of EUR 0.6 million (2022: EUR 0.3 million).

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.
