Depreciation and amortisation as well as disposals relate to property, plant and equipment as well as intangible assets and to right-of-use assets, and increased by € 20 million compared with 2018. Owing to the implementation of IFRS 16 as from 1 January 2019, the category 'right-of-use assets' relates only to 2019. See note 2.4 Effects of the adoption of new IFRS Standards.
Regular depreciation and amortisation increased by € 36 million, due to an increase in property, plant and equipment as well as right-of-use assets. Disposals decreased by € 16 million. This decrease was attributable in full to disposals in regulated networks.
The disposals of non-current assets excluding the result on disposals amount to € 5 million (2018: € 23 million).
