Board Committees

Committees of the Board deal with certain specific aspects of the Group’s affairs. These Committees are the Remuneration Committee, the Audit Committee and the Nomination Committee. The roles and responsibilities of the Committees are set out in their terms of reference. The terms of reference for each Committee are available by clicking on the link below.

Remuneration Committee

The Group’s Remuneration Committee is chaired by Mrs R Markland and its other members are the other independent non-executive directors, Ms T Ingram,  Mr M Rolfe, Mr I Mason and Mr A J Hobson. Under its terms of reference, the Committee meets at least twice a year. Remuneration consultants advise the Committee.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee is chaired by Mr M Rolfe. Its other members are independent non-executive directors, Mr I Mason, Ms T Ingram and Mrs R Markland. It meets at least four times a year.

The Nomination Committee

The Nomination Committee is chaired by the Chairman of the Board, Mr A J Hobson and consists of the Chairman and the four independent non-executive directors, Ms T Ingram, Mrs R Markland, Mr I Mason and Mr M Rolfe. The Nomination Committee meets on an ad hoc basis as required but not less than once a year.

CR Steering Group

As part of our on-going commitment to improving and maintaining good practices across the Group, the Board continues to ensure that an executive has specific responsibility for this area. Karen Geary, Director of Human Resources and Corporate Communications, continues to have responsibility for matters relating to CR.

At present the Board does not consider it appropriate to link the management of social, environmental and ethical issues to remuneration incentives, given the difficulties in objectively measuring risk management and performance in this area.
