the write-back of the provision for depreciation on shares in ABC SA


Explanation:
There is a difference between the depreciation charge for the year which appears in the income statement, and the depreciation fund that builds up in the balance sheet. I think it is the fund that is being reduced - this would release a credit to the income statement, which is what the phrase suggests.
