18. Contingent liabilities
At 30th June, 1986, there were potential contingent liabilities in respect of third party claims in connection with the operation of franchised motor buses amounting to approximately $45 million (1985: $46 million) for which provision of $44 million (1985: $44 million) has been included in contingency reserves. In the opinion of the directors, the amounts provided are sufficient to cover any liabilities which may subsequently arise in respect of these claims.
