c) Interest rate swap contracts:

Under interest rate swap contracts, the consolidated entity agrees to exchange the difference between fixed and floating rate interest amounts calculated on agreed notional principal amounts. Such contracts enable the consolidated entity to mitigate the risk of changing interest rates on debt held. The fair value of interest rate swaps are assessed on market values of equivalent instruments at the reporting date and are disclosed below. The following table details the national principal amounts and remaining terms of interest rate swap contracts outstanding as at reporting dates:
