Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset where the Group has a legally enforceable right to do so. The following is the analysis of the deferred tax balances (after allowable offset):

The movement in deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities during the year is as follows:

(1)

The deferred tax assets have been written down in the year ended 30 June 2021 to the extent that they will not shelter profits arising from the unwind of the deferred tax liability. This is due to a change in the substantively enacted UK Corporation tax rate from 19% to 25%, effective April 2023. The current US federal corporate income tax rate is 21%. As a result of this change the US deferred tax asset is no longer forecast to give rise to a future economic benefit. It is expected that any future US tax payable will be sheltered by future foreign tax credits arising from UK tax payable. Future increases in the US federal corporate income tax rate could result in a reversal of the US deferred tax asset write down.

The movement in UK net deferred tax liabilities are as follows:

⁽²⁾	An increase in the UK Corporation tax rate from 19% to 25%, effective April 2023, was substantively enacted in May 2021. This has resulted in the re-measurement of the UK deferred tax liability from 19% to 25% resulting in an additional charge of £11,224,000.

(3)	The “Other” deferred tax asset balance primarily comprises foreign exchange differences; fair value movements recognized in the hedging reserve; pensions not paid in the year and salaries not paid before 31 March 2023.

(4)	Of the total deferred tax liability, £7,402,000 is expected to be settled after more than one year.

Significant estimates - recognition of deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that the associated deductions will be available for use against future profits and that there will be sufficient future taxable profit available against which the temporary differences can be utilized, provided the asset can be reliably quantified. In estimating future taxable profit, management use “base case” approved forecasts which incorporate a number of assumptions, including a prudent level of future uncontracted revenue in the forecast period. In arriving at a judgment in relation to the recognition of deferred tax assets, management considers the regulations applicable to tax and advice on their interpretation and potential future business planning. Future taxable income may be higher or lower than estimates made when determining whether it is appropriate to record a tax asset and the amount to be recorded. Furthermore, changes in the legislative framework or applicable tax case law may result in management reassessing the recognition of deferred tax assets in future periods.

At 30 June 2022 there is an unrecognized US deferred tax asset of £87,609,000 which is detailed below (2021: £97,187,000 in respect of foreign tax credits in the US):
