It is shown that if a C *‐algebra A contains a semi‐scattered C *‐algebra B such that the pure states of B and the zero functional extend uniquely to A , and the canonical mapping B^ → Â is injective, then there exists a (unique) projection of norm one R : A → B . In certain circumstances, the conditional expectation R can be effected by a unitary averaging process using unitary elements in the centre of the multiplier algebra M ( B ).
