                        GROUP REPORTING CHANGES IN 2006


Barclays PLC today announces the impact of certain changes in Group structure
and reporting on 2005 and 2004 results, as advised in the conference call for
the Trading Update on 25th May 2006. Barclays has realigned a number of
reportable business segments based on the reorganisation of certain portfolios
to better reflect the type of client served, the nature of the products offered
and the associated risks and rewards. The Group's policy for the internal cost
of funding and the segmental disclosure of risk weighted assets was also revised
with effect from 1st January 2006. The restatements have no impact on the Group
Income Statement or Balance Sheet. The 2005 and 2004 results for all the
businesses are restated on pages 4 to 37 to show the effects of all of these
changes.

Group structure changes - effective 1st January 2006

UK Retail Banking comprises Personal Customers, Local Business (formerly Small
Business), UK Premier and Home Finance (formerly Mortgages). A number of smaller
business clients previously within UK Business Banking are now managed and
reported within UK Retail Banking.

UK Business Banking comprises Larger Business and Medium Business including
Asset and Sales Finance. A number of financial institution, large corporate and
property clients previously within UK Business Banking are now managed by and
reported in Barclays Capital. A number of smaller business clients previously
within UK Business Banking are now managed and reported within UK Retail
Banking. Certain portfolios have been reclassified as businesses in transition
and are now managed and reported in Head office functions and other operations.

Barclays Capital has added a number of financial institutions, large corporates
and property companies previously managed within UK Business Banking and
International Retail and Commercial Banking - Absa.

International Retail and Commercial Banking - Absa. The majority of Absa
Corporate and Merchant Banking has been relaunched as Absa Capital and is being
managed and reported in Barclays Capital.

Head office functions and other operations. Certain lending portfolios
previously managed within UK Business Banking have been reclassified as
businesses in transition. These businesses are now centrally managed with the
objective of maximising the recovery from these assets.

The structure remains unchanged for: Barclays Global Investors; Wealth
Management; Wealth Management - closed life assurance activities; Barclaycard
and; International Retail and Commercial Banking excluding Absa.

Changes to internal cost of funding - effective 1st January 2006

All transactions between the businesses are conducted on an arm's length basis.
Internal charges and transfer pricing adjustments are reflected in the
performance of each business. Head office functions and other operations
contains a centralised Treasury function which manages the Group's capital base,
generating a net interest income. Previously the net interest income was
allocated to the businesses based on the level of economic capital held by each
business as a proportion of that held by the Group, which ensured a nil net
interest income result in Treasury. The allocation is now determined by applying
Treasury's effective rate of return on capital to the average economic capital
held by each business. In 2005 this had the effect of retaining a greater
proportion of Treasury income within Head office functions and other operations,
reflecting the capital and goodwill balances held centrally. This approach has
been applied to all businesses. There is no change to the Group's net interest
income as previously reported.

Changes to risk weighted assets by business - effective 1st January 2006

Under the Group's securitisation programme, certain portfolios of loans and
advances to customers and other assets subject to securitisation or similar risk
transfer are adjusted in calculating the Group's risk weighted assets. With
effect from 1st January 2006 the costs associated with each securitisation,
which were previously held centrally, will be allocated to the relevant
businesses. The regulatory capital adjustments arising from the securitisation
programme will be attributed to the business which bears the costs. This
approach has been applied to all businesses. There is no change to the Group's
total risk weighted assets as previously reported.

The information in this announcement does not comprise statutory accounts within
the meaning of Section 240 of the Companies Act 1985 (the 'Act'). Statutory
accounts for the year ended 31 December 2005, which also include certain
information required for the joint Annual Report on Form 20-F of Barclays PLC
and Barclays Bank PLC to the US Securities and Exchange Commission, have been
delivered to the Registrar of Companies in accordance with Section 242 of the
Act.


International Financial Reporting Standards

The Group has applied International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) from
1st January 2004, with the exception of the standards relating to financial
instruments and insurance contracts which are applied only with effect from 1st
January 2005. Therefore the impacts of adopting IAS 32, IAS 39 and IFRS 4 are
not included in the 2004 comparatives in accordance with IFRS 1 and financial
instruments and insurance contracts are accounted for under UK GAAP in 2004.

The results for 2005 are therefore not entirely comparable to those for 2004 in
affected areas. For a fuller disclosure of the transitional impacts of IFRS,
please refer to the 2005 Annual Report, which contains re-measurement and
reclassification reconciliations in the Notes to the Accounts. A summary of the
Group's significant accounting policies can also be found in the 2005 Annual
Report. The financial information in this announcement has been prepared in
accordance with these accounting policies. Dashes have been used to indicate
where changes in policy cause an item to be not applicable and where there is no
amount to report.

charge equivalent to Barclays cost of funding the acquisition of the business.

document, resulting in a modest change in internal cost of funding relative to
that experienced by other businesses.

1 Period from 27th July until 31st December 2005.

2 In 2005, International Retail and Commercial Banking - Absa bore an internal
charge equivalent to Barclays cost of funding the acquisition of the business.
The net impact of this policy in 2005 was similar to that reflected in this
document, resulting in a modest change in internal cost of funding relative to
that experienced by other businesses.

3 The cost:income ratio is defined as operating expenses compared to total
income net of insurance claims.

4 The cost:net income ratio is defined as operating expenses compared to total
income net of insurance claims, less impairment charges.

Business net interest income is derived from the interest rate earned on average
assets or paid on average liabilities relative to the average Bank of England
base rate, local equivalents for international businesses or the rate managed by
the bank using derivatives. The margin is expressed as annualised business
interest income over the relevant average balance. Asset and liability margins
cannot be added together as they are relative to the average Bank of England
base rate, local equivalent for international businesses or the rate managed by
the bank using derivatives.

Average balances are calculated on daily averages for most UK banking operations
and monthly averages elsewhere.

Within the reconciliation of Group net interest income, there is an amount
captured as Other. This relates to: benefit of capital, including the
restatement of Reserve Capital Instruments and other capital instruments; Head
office functions and other operations; net funding on non customer assets and
liabilities; and Wealth Management - closed life assurance activities.

cover pension contribution risk.
