Deloitte observer notes are now available from the IFRS Interpretations Committee meeting held in London on 18 and 19 September 2012. In its active project on contingent pricing of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, the Committee discussed several models developed by the staff and the question of how closely a model should be tied to the leases project model that is not yet finalised. The discussions will be continued at a future meeting. The Committee also confirmed its tentative decisions published in the May IFRIC Update and discussed a number of other issues.
