Cheers Steve,
On the table whereby the activities are described does the Average figure indicate what the recommendation is?

Have a look through the guidance. Essentially yes.
You may also want to look through:

I presume that you are referring to an office environment.
The Society of Light and Lighting (SLL) Handbook, 2009 edition highlights that for Office lighting, the recommended levels of "maintained illuminance" are:-
Open plan office – mainly screen based work-300 lx
Open plan office – mainly paper based work-500 lx
Deep plan core area (more than 6m from window)- 500 lx
Cellular office – mainly screen based work-300 lx
Cellular office – mainly paper based work-500 lx
Please note that the obove have to be taken in context of the entire lightingf design, including ceiling height, daylight availability, interior surface finishes etc.
SLL is a part of CIBSE
